  Speaker 2: Yeah.

  Speaker 1: let's talk about the Art of Music. This was a
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: brand new thing last year. We stopped and checked it out.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: It's really cool. But for people who have no idea
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: what the heck we're talking about, how do you describe
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: what the Art of Music is?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so last year's the Art of Music, they featured
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: a live painter at the event. So every year we
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: try to change it up for something new and different.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: So this year, at the Art of Music, we have
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: over 20... over 10 local artists that put together over
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: 20 original pieces just for this and all within the
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: prompt of concert posters reimagined. So obviously in the music space,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: music and concert posters are such a big thing.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Because like that's, I mean, for me, that's how I
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: found out about a ton of concerts that I've gone
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: to in the past. And so, yeah, we gave the
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: prompt to these artists of, hey, find a concert that's,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: One of ours that we've done, something you want to
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: see in Sioux Falls or something coming up, and take
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: your own spin on it. See what you can come
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: up with. And we had over 20 original pieces come
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: out of it, which is super cool.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I'm excited. Now, it's coming up this Thursday. Where will
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the event be held on Thursday?
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's at Shriver Square Atrium, which is downtown
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Sioux Falls. So if you know where the Foti restaurant is,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: just come on through those double doors, and you'll find
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: us right inside there.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Phillips Avenue. And is that 12th and Phillips? It's right,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Kitty Corner from Minerva. So whatever that corner is. And

  Speaker 1: entertainment to the community all the time. So it's cool
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that you're taking live entertainment and you're taking the arts

  Speaker 1: be a part of the Pepper Entertainment Champion Foundation. And
• 2:47

• 2:51
  Speaker 2: And so every.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Every concert that we promote in Sioux Falls, a dollar
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: from every ticket sold there goes into the foundation. The
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: foundation helps benefit local artists, especially in our Sioux Falls
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: school district. We help provide guitar lessons there. So over
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: 800 students. I had to look this number up before this.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Over 800 students have taken classes there. uh, within the
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: guitar lessons that they provide at the school, Sioux Falls
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: school district because of it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: So what a cool thing. And think about, uh, how
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: amazing that is for 800 students. And they're not all
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: going to pursue that. They're not going to follow that forever,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: but even if a tiny fraction of them do, you know, uh, and,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and they, you know, make their way to a stage
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: somewhere someday because of this foundation set up by pepper entertainment.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: How cool is that?
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Just an opportunity to learn something so cool, like
