GABRIELLE SOLANGE
Gabrielle Solange is a Billboard charting music artist, social media influencer, and keynote speaker whose vulnerable storytelling allows her to connect with diverse audiences across the US and abroad. A former runaway in the foster care system, she credits her faith and the inner city youth arts programs of Columbus, Ohio for providing opportunities that awakened her self-worth and purpose. She has been blazing a trail using her voice and helping others to find theirs as she advocates for causes that are dear to her heart such as mental health, anti-bullying, suicide prevention, anti-racism, and equality. She received the Key to the City from Mayor Michael B. Coleman for her contributions to youth arts, along with her former colleagues.
​
She also hosts creative workshops for youth and adults in collaboration with schools, ministries, and organizations through her company, RunSong Productions, which also provides multi-media production services including photography and videography. In 2024, She launched her non-profit, RunSong Generation, with a goal to provide creative trauma-informed workshops and individual mentorships to youth in under-privileged areas and hopes to spread awareness and garner support.
