Full Circle: The collaboARTive Origin Story
Jean Blackwell Font & Ignacio Font at Gallery 100

Noche de Arte | November 2025 | InterContinental Miami

This November, Noche de Arte returns to where it all began—with the artists who started it all. Co-founders Jean Blackwell Font and Ignacio “Iggy” Font bring their creative partnership full circle in an intimate exhibition that reveals the origin story of collaboARTive through their individual works.

Full Circle celebrates the journey from two artists sharing a vision to a thriving community of 400 artists and a movement that has touched thousands. Through Jean’s exploration of inherited memory and Iggy’s meditation on transformation and renewal, the exhibition explores the themes that sparked collaboARTive in 2017: connection, accessibility, and the transformative power of creating.

For Jean and Iggy, what they do and say through collaboARTive is integral to the work they make. The organization embodies the same philosophy that drives their art: everyone has value, everyone has meaning.

Idyllic Funk Band are a high-powered, genre-blending ensemble rooted in the vibrant cultural fabric of Miami, led by drummer Daniel Washington. Seamlessly fusing jazz, Latin jazz, reggae, R&B, gospel and funk, the group offer reimagined standards and original compositions that move audiences. With a flexible roster that can include vocalists and additional instrumentalists, Idyllic Funk Band adapt to corporate, public and community stages while preserving deep musicality and warmth.

Their performances honor musical lineage—from the grooves of Tito Puente and Miles Davis to the spirit of Bob Marley—while carrying a contemporary, inclusive energy. The band’s recent residency-style engagements, including tributes such as A Night at Sir John’s Knight Beat, reflect their commitment to cultural memory and communal uplift. Whether in intimate venues or large outdoor showcases, Idyllic Funk Band deliver immersive, joyful soundscapes that invite connection and keep feet moving.
