DJ's Journey

"The Imagifriends - A Story of Art and Autism" - by Hendy Street
During the summer of 2019, DJ met the team from Hendy Street Produxions while filming “Welcome Home Angel” with Maggie Caswell. Hendy Street immediately fell in love with DJ’s contagious, positive vibes and unique artwork featuring the Mupperezmo and all the Imagifriends. DJ teamed up with Hendy Street on "The Imagifriends - A Story of Art and Autism", a mini-documentary of his story and his never ending mission of hope, acceptance and awareness for those with autism and special needs. And best of all, both DJ and Hendy Street gained some great, special friends for life! #Imagifrineds.
