O hey, It's the new guy...


Well hey everybody, this is officially my first personal blog post as a new member of The Silverman Group Chicago so I'll take a second to introduce myself. My name is Demetrius and I'm a current senior at Columbia College Chicago, in my last semester after 5 grueling years in America's higher education system. I hail from the lovely Midwest town of Kansas City, MO and this is my 3rd year in the Windy City. The arts have been my personal love attachment since i was just a runny nose kid playing Lego's and my opportunity to be a part of the artistic community here in Chicago comes at the perfect time.I came from a stint at the alternative weekly newspaper, The Chicago Reader and The Silverman Group has welcomed me with open arms and let me dive head first into some fun and unique projects that they are a part of here. I'm excited about my tenure with this hip organization, and yes, they are about as hip as it gets :). I have the opportunity to play a big part in the publicity for the Peace on Earth Film Festival which is to take place February 25-27 at the Chicago Cultural Center's Claudia Cassidy Theatre which I'm extremely excited about and invite everyone to take part in some portion of the festival. February is going to be a big month for us with The Joffrey Ballet's performance of "The Merry Widow", Avalon String Quartet, John Lequizamo@ the Royal George Theatre and many other exciting events that will keep all of you art and culture junkies foaming at the mouth. Chicago is the place to be for entertainment and all of us lovely personnel here at the Silverman Group will make sure that you know about some great events happening here in the City. Well anyway, back to work, i would love to hear some of your responses about events that you have attended and your overall feedback on the blog!

Cheers,
Demetrius
