BALTIMORE — WMAR-2 News is bringing you part two of Bridging the Gap, a series bringing you stories highlighting not only Black history but people within the Black community who are making a difference today and shaping the future for generations to come.
All throughout February, we brought you stories from all over Maryland.
This time around — we honor trailblazers in the arts.
Just like Donna Jacobs, founder and director of Morton Street Dance Center.
Jacobs has dedicated decades of her life shaping performers, and people.

Such is the same for Heather Malone-Wolf, the Head of Dance at the Garrison Forrest School, who uses dancing as a story-telling tool.
Malone-Wolf grew up in Baltimore County, making history during her time performing and is now working to pave the way for the next generation of dancers.

From the dance floor to the recording studio, we also bring you a daddy-daughter duo from Charles County who just recently were honored with a Grammy.
Hip-hop artist Fyütch and his daughter Aura V. won the award for 'Best Children's Music Album' at the 68th Grammy Awards, going from having fun to making history.
