Nursha Project Welcomes Mia Marcus: Photographer

We welcome our newest addition, Mia Marcus: Photographer, to the Nursha Family!

Born and raised in New York City, Mia Marcus’ early interest in photography was inspired by the NYC music scene. Starting out as an avid fan of Hip-Hop music, Mia was able to transfer that passion through her photography.

After graduating from the University of Rhode Island she began to take her interest in photography to the next level by shooting various concerts, music videos and parties in NYC. She has photographed many artists including Fabolous, Jim Jones, Q-tip, 50 cent and many others.  Still in the early stages of her career in photography, she has been blessed to work with the likes of celebrity photographer, Johnny Nunez. Her ambition to become one of the top female photographers in her field has driven accomplishments such as being featured in the Source Magazine, GO! Magazine and working as a contributing photographer at HOT 97.1.

Mia is constantly working hard  to conceive her dynamic style in photography. Her focus and passion drive her creativity.  You can catch Mia backstage, on-stage or in crowd shooting at any live concert in NYC.

Join NPA Moira Cutler Tonight For Crawlspace At WOW Café Theatre

Crawlspace is about an interracial relationship between two women from the south, transplanted to a broken down haunted New York city ten years from now, in an America grappling with ghosts of a not so distant past and the consequences they have wrought us physically, psychologically and preternaturally.  A southern gothic noire and political thriller,  it’s at once deeply personal as well as political.

Join Nursha Project Artist, Moira Cutler, for a sneak peak look at Crawlspace and a night of food, song, dance and informal conversation about the play. This reading and benefit party will feature a tasting menu sampling flavors from New York City, New Orleans, and South Carolina. The chef will provide ethnic flavors of Jewish, Japanese, Cajun and Southern cuisine in a uniquely New Yorkean patois of the palate.
