Downtown Columbia: Green River Arts set to offer G.R.A.C.E. ANOTHER GROUP SHOWS FAITH IN DOWNTOWN: Green River Arts is set to open the doors of a school just off the Square on Jamestown Street, in the building once occupied by the Dream Depot, soon. Author, public school teacher, painter, singer and martial arts practitioner Darlene Campbell shares the story of how she and the other two principals of the academy, Josh Tucker and Sam Avery became a team and decided, despite have served the community at free events, to launch the school, inspired by Martin Luther King's words "Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase." By Darlene Campbell Nearly two years ago I received an email from my friend, Vonnie, about a free self-defense class being offered in Columbia. Little did I realize then that I was about to embark upon one of the greatest adventures of my life, that the instructors of that class and I were destined to become close friends, that we shared not only a love of martial arts, but a love of visual arts, literary arts and music. In the following year and a half we trained in kung fu, we practiced music, we sang at churches, the farmer's market, at Summit Manor and we did skits for anyone who would open their doors for us. We were modern troubadours. Yet,all the while, every Saturday for well over a year, we offered free self-defense classes. Our great desire was to be a blessing to our community.
