DC Trip Updates – Who Was There!

As more information becomes available we’ll have it posted for you.

Here’s the link again for the actual webcast of Arcadian’s DC performance

In Washington DC, Arcadian first and foremost got to meet some incredibly courageous kids!   He was honored to stand beside them and to celebrate their triumphs.

“I am truly blessed to be a part of SAMHSA 2011,” he said. “Thank you to all who worked so hard to make this event happen.”  At….

The National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day 2011 National Event,

Arcadian felt privileged to perform in front of many of the dignitaries and distinguished guests who were there.

Just to mention a few of them:

Regina Benjamin, United States Surgeon General

Rocco Landesman; Chairman, National Endowment for the Arts

Kathleen Sebelius; Secretary, US. Department of Health and Human Services

Pamela Hyde; Administrator, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services

Kathryn Power; Director, Center for Mental Health Service

Bryan Samuels, Commissioner on Children, Youth and Families

He also enjoyed meeting the “warm and funny” Jamie Lee Curtis; Golden Globe actress and author.

Arcadian says that meeting Byron Pitts, Emmy award-winning journalist of CBS 60 Minutes, inspired me to be who I am.

The event inspired him to “work hard and be grateful for all that you have”.  “God has blessed us with abilities to reach our dreams and inspire others.”

It was a memorable event.

Pictures will be posted as soon as we can.

Hope you enjoy the webcast!

Next time we’ll have some great pictures an upcoming movie that’s a must to see!
