A group of people are posing together and smiling. They are wearing matching attire with name tags. Above, another person stands at a podium with a microphone. The image includes a banner with the text: "Honoring Black History: Exploring the Future of Funk Music." The IIRP's World Conference "Artful Integration" logo is visible in the top left corner.
A person is speaking in a room with a poster in the background titled "MusicED Makes Magic!" The poster mentions music education and (STEAM) programs. The image includes a logo for WDTN 2 NEWS in the top left corner. A quote by Deron Bell is displayed, with text that reads, “I bring the technology now, so it’s the best of both worlds. We have the traditional way of doing music, with traditional instruments...now I’m making it relevant using iPads, we’re using interactive smartboards, and things. It doesn’t replace the creativity inside someone, if it does anything, it creates inspiration to bring out what’s in them.”
—Deron Bell, musician, restorative practitioner, creator of “My Music Ed” app
