Meet KeithKNOWS ……… | Founder, Creator, Cultural Warrior

We had the good fortune of connecting with KeithKNOWS ……… and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi KeithKNOWS, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I have always immersed myself in the arts and culture world, it came organically natural for me. Being a creative allows you to walk in your own truth which is important to me.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
KeithKNOWS.net, My social journey began with hosting various events the 2nd Sunday of each month throughout Atlanta from inviting guests to see Ailey at the Fox Theatre, dine at a brand new restaurant, view an art exhibit, exploring various neighborhoods, lounge at a coffee bar and much more.

The social journey expanded due to an increase of interests, so I created a website to engage with my Cultural Warriors to keep them informed about all that Atlanta has to offer

I’m so proud and excited to have a company that elevates our community by sharing arts and culture for 20 years and counting. We specialize in ensuring our communities are included in valuable and useful information such as diverse events, black businesses, financial planning, healthy habits, and much more.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?

The National Black Arts(NBAF) set the tone for my love of the arts and culture, I was the Volunteer Coordinator for over 25 years, so I spent numerous hours being surrounded by amazing artists, diverse cultures, and creatives. Currently, being the Atlanta Alvin Ailey Ambassador Coordinator allows me to connect with the community elevating performing arts, dance.
