Blues @ Home was honored to be part of the recent
Blessissippi Crossroads Concert event in Clarksdale. The event was a fund-raiser for Delta State University's
Delta Music Institute and was hosted by actor Morgan Freeman and
Explore.org founder, Charles Annenberg Weingarten.

H.C. Porter and Lauchlin Fields, project manager for Blues @ Home, were excited to showcase some of the photographs and paintings from the project during the weekend at Son House Gallery right down from the Delta Blues Museum and Ground Zero Blues Club, where the concert was held Saturday night. |

Daryl Hollingsworth found a way to hang a couple of the paintings from the ceiling of Ground Zero. |

This painting of Super Chikan, one of the 29 Blues @ Home featured musicians, was on display as Super Chikan jammed on stage.
