About the Peer-Expert Facilitators: Richard “Sleepy” Floyd is a Drummer, Producer, and Cultural Curator. He has toured and performed with a myriad of artists both nationally and internationally for the last 15 years. In addition, he is in high demand as a curator, having developed programming and booking for large scale events, concert series, and music festivals.Joshua Thompson is a pianist, social musicologist, teaching artist and producer. Known onstage as &quot;Sock Joplin&quot;, he is increasingly recognized on a national scale for his expertise on classical composers of African descent and the inherent cultural connectivity in the broader aesthetic of Black Arts movements. As the 2020 Beckman Emerging Artist Fellow of the Arts Council of Indianapolis, he successfully completed his residence at the Africana Studies Center for Music and Society at the Berklee School of Music in Boston and currently serves as the first Musicologist in Residence for Classical Music Indy. Joshua obtained a Bachelor of Arts in sociology from DePauw University, Greencastle, Indiana. He deftly merged his music and advocacy paths through performances, appearances and working closely with an expanding range of national cultural arts organizations, social agencies, and universities to facilitate access to educational resources. The Arts Council of Indianapolis, the Indiana Arts Commission, Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, Indianapolis Symphonic Choir, Marian University, Butler University, the University of Puget Sound, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Dallas Winds, Classical Music Indy, Arts for Lawrence, Arts for Learning, Morning Brown, Inc., Indy Jazz Fest have all worked with Mr. Thompson in this capacity .In January 2018, Thompson debuted his first artistic production, “Village Voices: Notes from the Griot”—an original production that highlights the unsung and underperformed masterworks from artists of African descent. Since then, Joshua has worked with legendary bassist John Clayton, Smithsonian Research Fellow Dr. William C. Banfield, touring pianist Ric’key Pageot, Pulitzer Prize winner Anthony Davis, renowned clarinetist Anthony McGill, and international operatic soprano Angela Brown. In October 2019, he was a featured presenter for the popular TED Talk series. His award-winning podcast series “Melanated Moments in Classical Music” with co-host Angela Brown, is currently in its fourth season of production and won 2020 Best Music Podcast from the Black Podcasting Awards and was recently featured in the British publication, Alternative Classical, and the Miami Times. Chandra Lynch is a New Orleans native and attended Xavier University of Louisiana where she studied Biology/Pre-Med &amp; Chemistry, but her love for the arts &amp; business has taken her over! Chandra founded Ankh Productions (formerly Ankh Photography) in 2008 and has since expanded with the aid of her business partner, Jamaal McCray. Ankh Productions has grown into a full production house for photography, theater/film, graphic design, brand and social media management. Chandra has been helping corporations and entrepreneurs transform their brands and expand their businesses for over 7 years but has now focused her efforts on creative entrepreneurs and artists after seeing the lack of business knowledge shared with her fellow creatives. Her goal is to equip amazing artists with the brand tools to reach their individual goals and achieve what success means to them.
