*Sacramento, CA – Music and entertainment industry veteran Jay King has consistently hosted the gathering of some of the greatest minds across several sectors at his Annual Creative Exchange Conference.
His 4th Annual Creative Exchange Conference continues that tradition this year, Friday, March 22 and Saturday, March  23, 2019.
Thought leaders and influencers, the likes of Dr. Cornel West, NAACP President Betty Williams, Cameo’s Larry Blackmon, and radio host Mark Harris are just a sampling of the brilliant brains that will gather at the Greater Sacramento Urban League located at 3725 Marysville Blvd. in Sacramento.
The two-day event will feature enlightened discussions and exchanges about everything from the challenges facing low income and urban communities, to issues and solutions in music, technology, education, finance, politics, and the community. Details and registration are at www.creativeexchange.me.
This year’s conference boasts 40 speakers, panelists, and experts from myriad backgrounds including the arts, entertainment, politics, technology, education, finance and community.
“It is truly a creative exchange of ideas, knowledge, perspectives and best practices that are shared between panelists to their audiences and vice versa,” cites Jay King, the creator and creative force behind the Creative Exchange Conferences. “The idea is to jump-start conversations between people with a goal for us to learn how to listen, share, agree to disagree, and maybe change our perspectives a little so we can find a common ground that can move us forward, build partnerships, and create building blocks for new changes and ideas in our lives both individuÂally, and collectively.”
Jay King is a music producer /performer, community activist and radio host. He formed the Grammy Awarding winning group, Club Nouveau, who were originally based out of Sacramento.
