SSP Alumnus, John P. Dessereau ('02) and his mentor, Brant Brooks, reunited at the The Bronx Brewery event on Friday, January 19, in support of John's artwork. Their long-lasting relationship is a testament to the power of building and maintaining a strong connection that lasts beyond the high school years!
In collaboration with The Bronx Brewery, John had his unique artwork featured on their cans in honor of the brewery's inaugural Y-Series of the year. John's work combines acrylics, watercolors, and digital art to showcase the vibrant cityscapes of New York City. A testament to his success in the creative industry, John is recognized by The Society of Illustrators, 3x3 Magazine Communication Arts, and is in the permanent collections of Spike Lee and The Queens Library in New York.
We are so grateful to John for choosing SSP as the community partner for the event, where a portion of the profits will directly support SSP's programs. A true full-circle moment for John, SSP Class of 2002!
It is truly inspiring to see Brant show up and support John's passions after all of these years. This is what mentorship is all about.
