We’re thrilled to welcome New Orleans-based artist, entrepreneur, and changemaker Brandan 'bmike' Odums as the emcee of this year’s Opening Plenary at the #PointsofLight25 Conference!
Bmike’s story is rooted in the power of creativity to spark conversation, connection and community transformation. Through his larger-than-life murals and commitment to social justice, he’s shown how art can serve as both a mirror and a movement — honoring identity, history, and hope.
The Opening Plenary sets the tone for the days ahead, spotlighting global leaders, bold ideas, and the heartbeat of New Orleans. Together, we’ll explore how service strengthens mental well-being, deepens our sense of purpose, and drives sustainable change.
⭐Join us June 3–6 in New Orleans as we elevate volunteering from “nice to necessary” and celebrate the people and movements shaping a brighter future: https://brnw.ch/21wSZ69
