WACO is thankful for the supporters, donors, staff WACO is thankful for the supporters, donors, staff, volunteers and community of artists that truly make this a place #WhereArtCanOccur. It is not lost on us that for many, this is a time for education and deep reflection as we think about the origins of this national holiday and its original impact on BIPOC. As you gather, we hope this will serve as an opportunity to recommit to the power of the arts to reflect truth and create long-lasting change.

Congratulations to WACO supporter, “business...m Congratulations to WACO supporter, “business...man,” philanthropist and hip hop legend, Shawn Carter for this well-earned and deserved recognition. @jayz becomes the first living solo rapper to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. — over 50M albums and 75M singles sold worldwide — 14 No. 1 albums (most ever by a solo artist) — 22 Grammys (most in hip hop history) — hip hop’s first billionaire From @essence: • "The genius thing we did, we didn't give up." Congratulations to Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter for being inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame. To the believers this is a reminder that your dreams are valid. From Marcy Projects to the penthouse is a pipeline of overcoming adversity and betting on yourself. Denied resources and opportunity at every turn, he created his own luck and turned himself into a business…man. Billions later, we are tuned into the ** greatest and that's a hustle you can't knock. You can still be who you wish you is... 🥂 #ESSENCE Source: Getty, Forbes
