Looking for sponsors

My friend carson is looking for sponsors for the event described below for Sea of Flame International Artists. It is on April 23. I thought of you guys - since you're the A-team!! I've copied Carson above, so feel free to contact her directly. She has a great personality and very involved in the local art community.

My warm regards,
Marc


Our current sponsors:
Urban Icons and Alan Solis will provide Hennessey Mojitos,
Bawls will provide their energy drink, and
Stoai Outdoor Concept's lights the event with their designs from Bali.

Location: Art Rouge Gallery of International Contemporary Art @ 46 nw 36th St Wynwood Art District Miami Florida

It is a fundraiser for SOFIA: Sea of Flame International Artists.
The event features an art exhibition and performance with live percussion and world music DJ. SOFIA's MAP of UOU is a wildly intuitive, live kinetic installation that merging music, art and dance into an interaction for the senses!

Music inspires my dance and painting. I paint with sea grass, rope, bare feet…; mix natural elements in paint; and paint on recycled glass, metal, and fabric. Live percussion releases instinct exciting the core of human spirit, inspiring us to reconnect with nature.

Recent performances:
Martin Solveig (internationally known French DJ) for Winter Music Conference 2008, the New World Symphony, Belo (famous Haitian singer), and 7 professional percussionists currently living in Miami playing African, Middle Eastern and Brazilian rhythms.

The guest list includes many high profile collectors. My personal list of about 385 locals, includes Carlos and Rosa de la Cruz, Craig Robins, Tony Goldman, Jose Perez of Related Group, the Bramans, the Scholls. I will also send to my international list of 3000+. The gallery has a list of 3000.

We have chosen an evening that is free of other big events on the Miami calendar, so attendance will assuredly be great. This is an rsvp event.

Sales of art works benefit SOFIA. We will also accept donations. This performance is also meant to market SOFIA's global project.

SOFIA is a green community/gallery stimulating global responsibility. It begins with people: artists of all races, ethnicities or cultural identities. By encouraging collaboration between its members, SOFIA provides a communal space with subsidized materials, equipment, work/practice space, and a relational database as a proactive marketing tool. The goal: to provide the means for artists to work, exhibit and effectively market their art.

SOFIA’s vision is to promote societal change, consciousness and responsibility. It mandates artists’ projects to spur people to reconnect with nature and themselves, and challenge social constructs.

SOFIA engages a community of visionaries inspired to motivate and embody their vision with imaginative, thought-provoking concepts through regularly sponsor member forums and events in collaboration with humanitarian organizations focused on global enhancement, i.e. youth arts, social and environmental justice programs, and etc: such as Rush, eCombs, and others. We also collaborate with businesses that support our mission.
