A list of Jersey City-based creatives wouldn’t be complete without @luvl1sa. With an expanding DJ career, years of hosting dope events through Chilltown Collective (@chilltown.us), and building community through @roadie.worldwide, @merienda.famjam, cycling, and more - LUV channels her energy by staying grounded, reflective, and making sure people are having a good time. ✨

A day in the life of @luvl1sa. As a DJ, event producer, and co-founder of community building groups such as Chilltown Collective (@chilltown.us), @roadie.worldwide, and @merienda.famjam, LUV always finds ways to pay tribute to her roots and to the city she was born and raised in - Jersey City.
Full video drops today at 6pm EST at @soledoutnj.

“That’s one of the things I love about Jersey City. There’s no gatekeepers. I can hit someone and be like hey let’s work, and we will.” - @denny623
In a feature with @soledoutnj, hear about how Denny gravitated toward creating art through fashion and photography at a time before social media. Just as a way to stay positive during challenging times, he shared his passion and connected with a community that continues to grow with him to this day.

Recap edit for @woes as he blessed this wall with his signature panda for the first ever Jersey City Mural Festival presented by @jcmap & @manapublicarts 🐼✨
It was a great weekend to see these muralists in action and to be surrounded by their work. And as always, it’s fun to catch up with @woes on his latest projects from more art and paintings to DJing and working on @theboombapkids 🎛🎤✨
More murals from this festival can be found at @manacontemporary (like those by @dragon76art & @lamoursupreme seen in this edit) and under the viaduct by Monmouth/Coles St.

Throwback to 2019 when the @iloveyourestaurant pulled up with @c.syresmith and @asaprocky to distribute free vegan meals to kids and residents of Harlem.
Big thanks to @gilligancreative for bringing us on board for this one. Together we raised awareness of the mission of the ILY truck to bring free, healthy food to communities that don’t have access to high-quality, sustainable meals.
