In the Soles of Imagination shoe design workshop, participants take charge of the entire brand process. They create color concepts, choose brand and shoe names, and determine the perfect look and price for their brand. Imagination is encouraged, resulting in unique designs. As they design their shoes, students ponder their dreams: How would it feel for these dreams to come true? How would they see themselves? How would the world perceive them? At the course’s end, participants walk in the spirit of their desired dreams.

Kings Return

Dynamic and soothing four-piece vocal group Kings Return take pride in crafting a diverse yet supremely cohesive a cappella sound: The blend of their unique vocal timbres is so rich and so smooth that, at times, it sounds more like a full choir. Their sound has earned comparisons to iconic acts like Take 6 and Boyz II Men. Their brand of R&B is entwined with free moments of jazz, soulful bursts of gospel, and bright touches of pop—all built on a solid, classical foundation. Theirs is the kind of talent that makes virtuosic performance look (and sound) like sublime, effortless playtime, defying the constraints of any single genre to explore a myriad of sonic shades and textures.
