Thanks for setting this up, I came to it through my friend Liz. It's great to be able to connect with other creative people in the area! I can't wait to get to know you all.

I wanted to talk to you about something for Paint Annapolis, I'm doing PR, and understand that you'll be hosting a local arts show. We wanted to explore the possibility of an interview or something featuring the event (it takes place in mid Sept)...If you don't mind, could you reply on my e-mail (dscherini@hotmail.com) Thanks so much! ...by the way, I enjoyed your music/art compilation on this site....one of your pieces reminded me alot of one I did of a stormy sky. I'll see if I can figure out how to add it to my page.

While principally known as a guitarist and leader of the Rob Levit Trio renowned for its jazz renditions and improvisations, he also paints, writes poetry and essays and is active in infusing creativity into schools, communities and the workplace. His work is distinguished by the depth of its originality and by the breadth of its interest.

He has provided workshops, performances and seminars for Daimler-Chrysler, Northwestern Mutual, Leadership Anne Arundel, Entrepreneurs Exchange, American Business Women's Association and Anne Arundel County Public Schools among others.
In July and August 2006, Levit served as a fellow for the APPEX program at UCLA's Center for Intercultural Performance where he lived, collaborated and performed with creative artists from the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Germany and the United States. The program was sponsored in part by the United States Department of State. In September 2006, Levit was the recipient of the Annie Award for performing arts given annually to artists "who have made a lasting, significant and inspiring contribution to an art form, an arts organization and to the wider community of Anne Arundel County."
