Black Wall Street
It's the Classic for Columbus's Black Wall Street Marketplace! Austin (head of the street marketing team of CPY) was excited to meet all the vendors this year at the Classic. This year there was over 20 vendors in attendance. Culture People You loves to connect with the local small businesses and share their stories with our readers. So let's follow Austin as he travels through the marketplace.
Austins' first stop is Chipmunk Chronicles. A clothing line created by Omotayo Obayanju that pays tribute to a Different World television show. Austin sports a Hillman college hat from the university of the series.

Austin was taken back by the amazing art work by Evan William of EWill Studio. Each art piece tells a unique story of black history, entertainment and so much more. Evan started his visual story telling at the age of 8 and is a master at his craft. He also has wearable art as you can see from the Lebron T-shirt.
