Artist Presentation + Exhibition + Live Performance

People Of All Colors And ARTS Coming Together For Humanity


“tour the ARTS.MWQ" is the brainchild of Leisei Chen & Michael White, multi-cultured Jazz vocalist and living legend Jazz violinist, partners in life and music, and the founders of Michael White Quintet. The concept comes from their long-held vision to bring their Jazz group, the Michael White Quintet, to perform live with artists and at arts- centric venues, resulting in a diverse tour of multi-dimensional arts events worldwide. The group seeks to explore, expose, and experiment with their own artistic potential in collaboration with all disciplines of the arts and all cultures, based on the group's cornerstones of LOVE. HEALING. INSPIRATION. HOPE.
