Project Innovate Studios "Legendary Beginnings"

More on Project Innovate Studios

(Established 2022)

"This past July, local multi-hyphenate creative Zahir Muhammad was talking to his friend and frequent collaborator Ugonna “Ugo” Njoku, director of the Social Boot documentary, about an oft-discussed but never-exhausted topic among their ilk: underground creativity in Baton Rouge.

Two years Njoku’s junior, 19-year-old Muhammad admires how the young director has been able to turn an ambition—in this case, a filmatic exploration of racial disparities in Louisiana health care and the social and cultural waves that reverberate from them—into a reality. That conversation in July 2021 got him thinking about the power of his own ideas and what they could do for the community."

Fashion Gala and FACES! (2023)

"Its most recent exhibition, a fashion gala hosted in the Student Union Art Gallery, created a sense of intimacy that encouraged attendees to treat the event like a unique but comforting experience.

Guests stood in the dark, packed room as committee members and gala were introduced. From there, the lights came on, Lil Yachty's latest album 'Let's Start Here' began to play and you could see fireworks going off in brains as the newness of the experience began to set in. 

This was Project Innovate Studios' goal the entire time. To ignite fires within individuals through art and inspire them to keep the ball rolling.”
