    Jon Batiste kicks off Grammy Museum’s educational series

    LOS ANGELES (AP) --

    Jon Batiste is still putting in some Grammy work: The multi-talented performer will kick off a series geared toward public and educational programs in New York City next month.

    The Grammy Museum announced Thursday that Batiste will perform during a series titled "A New York Evening with Jon Batiste." He'll hit the stage on June 17 at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center.

    Batiste will be the first performer as part of the museum's six-part series. His performance comes after he collected five trophies including album of the year for "We Are" at the Grammy Awards in April.

    The museum will partner with the New York mayor's office to bring educational programming with two summer sessions. It'll be free five-day songwriting workshops for students currently enrolled in high school.

    New York City Mayor Eric Adams said he's thrilled about the partnership.

    "These efforts align perfectly, not only with our vision to support future musicians who might one day contribute to New York City's creative economy," he said in a statement.

    The programs will run through the end of this year at various venues in the city. The other five programs and performers will be announced at a later date.

    Forty slots will be available for students during the summer sessions, which will be held the weeks of July 11 and July 18. Each week-long session will take place at CUNY Graduate Center and free of charge to students.

    Filmmaker Anthony Leonardi III Joins RSA Films For Commercial Representation

    Thursday, December 11, 2025

    RSA Films has added director and artist Anthony Leonardi III to its roster for commercial representation in the U.S.

    Leonardi’s extensive credits include brand partnerships with the Marvel universe on campaigns for Lexus, Tide, Audi and the Super Bowl spots “Mini Marvel” for Coca-Cola and “No Shrinking and Drinking” for Heineken. He was a second unit director on blockbusters Lilo & Stitch and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. He’s worked with a list of talent including Robert Downey Jr., Ana de Armas, Paul Rudd, Eric Andre, Elizabeth Olson, Kamail Nanjiani, Brie Larson, The Rock, Danai Gurira, Chris Hemsworth and Anthony Mackie. And Leonardi has partnered with agencies to direct campaigns for brands such as Old Spice, Chevy, Mountain Dew, Miller Lite, Hyundai, Hertz and more. Prior to joining RSA, Leonardi had most recently been repped in the ad arena by production house Eleanor.

    An expert in world building, with a distinctive style that delivers a visually rich, action packed and entertaining cinematic experience, Leonardi has a visual aesthetic which grew from a childhood obsession with comics. “There was a comic shop in my hometown that I went to every day after school,” he said. “Eventually the owner’s son started letting me hang around after closing. He’d hand me a stack of paper and tell me to try drawing from any of the books I wanted. It blew my mind wide open and was the first time I realized I had a skill with art that was unique to me. It gave me my voice.”

    Leonardi refined his talent studying character animation and film at CalArts, then later directing, at The AFI Film Conservatory where he first met Luke Ricci, who is now president of RSA Films US. “Luke was one of the first people... Read More
