Fashion Production
The festival will open with the elegant Dysonna Garden Fashion Show, celebrating the theme “The Gospel Meets Romance,” where designers present flowing silhouettes, statement hats, and garden-inspired couture in a beautiful rose garden setting.
Created by producer Donna Dyson, the festival is designed to uplift the spirit and celebrate the beauty of culture, creativity, and community.
“Many festivals entertain,” says Dyson. “We cultivate harmony.”
More than a performance, Rhythm & Roses is a curated cultural experience where music, fashion, art, and spirituality come together to inspire connection and renewal.

Passion for Art Inc.'s Role: Passion for Art Inc., a nonprofit organization, plays a vital role in empowering artists through scholarships and mental health support. As part of our fundraising efforts, we are offering scholarships for artists to travel to South Africa this November for a transformative 12-day tour. Your sponsorship will help make these opportunities a reality for deserving artists.
Mental Health Advocacy: In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, the festival remains committed to raising awareness about mental health challenges faced by artists. Representatives from the Los Angeles Department of Mental Health, Nero Hameed from Addicted to Addicts, and Lillie Wyche will be present to support and mentor participants during our Creative Minds program.— Squarespace
