Jason Mraz and students make the perfect Richmond Video
Happy Friday. Sit back and enjoy this amazing video by Jason Mraz, SPARC, Richmond Students, and more.
In March 2018, SPARC worked with Jason Mraz to coordinate and choreograph 100 SPARC students, 100 Richmond Public Schools students, and a dozen partner organizations to perform with Jason in his new music video, “Have It All!” The experience was awesome — and perhaps the most awe-inspiring part of it was the creation of a grand partnership, with SPARC’s Erin Thomas-Foley at the helm. Binford Middle School, Martin Luther King Middle, WoodvilleElementary, Turnaround Arts: Richmond, Communities In Schools of Richmond, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond, Robinson Theater Community Arts Center, Richmond Dance Center, Host of Sparrows Aerial Dance and Circus Arts — all called together and coordinated within about a three-week window from concept to filming. Thank you, Jason Mraz, and all those who had a hand in giving this experience to RVA’s kids and making this project come to life!
