TOWN HALL
Giving Flowers Today: Celebrating Our Creative Community
This powerful conversation brought together a room full of remarkable voices who shared insight, experience, and ideas with honesty and heart. Together, we explored how to meaningfully recognize the often-overlooked architects of our cultural landscape — from legendary figures to rising talents shaping what's next. In a world that rarely pauses to honor those transforming it, we surfaced real ways to uplift one another, celebrate our collective brilliance, and give creatives their flowers while they can still receive them.
Our panel featured award-winning makeup artists, founders, and product developers for Fenty Beauty — including Emmy-nominated talent and top educators. Each host led with intention, sharing their expertise while making space for every voice. In true PR🔴UD OF US spirit, the conversation honored all contributions and ensured every guest felt seen, heard, and celebrated.
