Immanuel Simone Headshot

IMMANUEL SIMONE

Simone’s name Immanuel, means “God is with us”. Through her work she hopes to show that God is with us all. She is from New Orleans, Louisiana and attended the New Orleans Center for creative Arts. Simone graduated with her BFA in acting from Ball State University and is currently a part of the Artist at Work residency in partnership with Ashé Culture arts Center. Simone’s goal is to use her unique experiences to show why representation is one of the most important goals of art in this generation! She is forever grateful for her family,friends,and especially her mother. Broadway Advocacy Coalition is creating dream come true moments, with a powerful artivism lense and I am so glad to feel seen by this coalition.

FELLOWSHIP PROJECT AND ENGAGEMENT

HOME

8 to Abolition Point:
Provide Safe Housing for Everyone

Home is a multi disciplinary documentary using stories, song, dance, and poetry to discuss safe housing specifically for black trans folks.

 
 

ENGAGEMENT STRATEGY

The audience should be able to reflect on how the housing system affects them. It should be a gateway in supporting the House of Tulip organization. The audience should question their sense of home.
