iMedia coaches rising stars Collinwood Rec

2014 has brought new and exciting opportunities to the digital media class that meets at the Collinwood Recreation Center on Wednesdays at 4:30pm.

First, we have a new name, our program is now known as iMedia. This program allows our youth, ages 13-18, to explore career opportunities associated with radio, media and the arts.

Devon Merritt, a rising R&B singer, who was discovered at the iMedia class by music executive and radio personality Darvio "Kingpin" Morrow of The Avenue Radio Show, on WHK 1420am performed at the Cavaliers vs. the Chicago Bulls game during Primetime on January 22nd.  

Rakim Huff, aspiring actor and director, is up for an audition at a local Westside theater.   One of our new opportunities is an online magazine called Volume Magazine, which is a Cleveland-centric entertainment & pop culture online magazine, with the following subjects: music, fashion, film/tv/radio, sports, arts and culture. We need inspiring writers, if you are interested contact us at volumemagcle@gmail.com. Volume Magazine was co-funded by Neighborhood Connections and the Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
