"Art is culture. And culture is the expression of the people. The art and culture from Memphis has influenced and inspired the world several times over. From the ‘I am a Man’ sign to the sounds of Stax Records. From the swag and artistry of Jookin' to the unique production and storytelling of the music that influences it. Art and culture are the city's most precious exports, aside from the people themselves. And supporting the art of Memphis is what it means to truly embrace your inner Memphis." – Eso Tolson, Artist, Consultant, and Co-founder of 5ifth Floor See Eso's weekend guide picks below, or curate your own with the ARTSmemphis community calendar: Ballet Memphis Presents Winter Mix I Playhouse on the Square I Feb 21-23 Stax Music Academy Celebrates 25th Anniversary I The Cannon Center for the Performing Arts I Feb 21 Brunch and Brushes I UrbanArt Commission I Feb 22 Black History Symposium Series I Hattiloo Theatre I Feb 22 All Men Sing: An American Voice I First Baptist Church Memphis I Feb 22
