| Description: | The Wallflower Gallery 13 Year Anniversary Celebration & Closing Ceremony Saturday, May 1 * 1:00 p.m. - 1:00 a.m.+? * $5 admission * 305-579-0069 10 N.E. 3rd Street * Downtown Miami 33132 The Wallflower Gallery is going to be celebrating its 13th Year Anniversary with a full day fest of music, spoken word, visual arts and lots of creative interaction. This showcase will feature a wide variety of music, spoken word and dance performances as well as an Interactive Improv Finale Jam and live art. This is also going to be the LAST SHOW in THIS LOCATION! The building is scheduled to be torn down. Over the last 13 years, The Wallflower Gallery has worked to bring people together with numerous artistic and social events. Mixing elements of creativity, education and community awareness, The Wallflower Gallery continues to strive for more recognition toward South Florida's emerging and established artists. As part of The Wallflower Gallery's 13 Year Celebration, we are reaching out to the visual artists, poets, dancers, musicians, comedians, philosophers and creative spirits who have invigorated this space and called it a home away from home. This celebration marks a distinctive history, but it also opens opportunities for the future. The Wallflower Gallery is more than a location or collection of artists. The Wallflower Gallery stands for many things, but expressing and sharing moments of meaning is the paramount principle. As part of those connections, many friendships have been established and strengthened through significant interaction. As a location, this creative space often provided that foundation for those special times, while the warm essence of The Wallflower Gallery is enriched by the joy and comradery of those within. Right now as we transition out of the current location, we are already working on plans to RE-OPEN in a NEW LOCATION. There have been many offers and the potential locations seem to be abundant. Over the next couple of months, we will work to build up the financial resources to make The New Wallflower Gallery EVEN BIGGER & BETTER utilizing the knowledge and connections that we have accumulated over the last 13 YEARS to design a quality facility for the artists, performers and our South Florida community. As part of the transition, we will be able to focus on developing Artists for Community Evolution as a non-profit organization. This will help us with grants, sponsorship and donations. This event will also be a fundraiser for The Wallflower Gallery to help us cover the moving expenses as well the cost of storage and we prepare for the NEW LOCATION! Donations can be sent to The Wallflower Gallery through PayPal. There will be live music by Sweetbone, The Cornerstoners, Franklin's Wheel, Kuyayky, Raffa, Erica Sommer, Carl Ferrari, The Humdrums, Jenny Skylark, Ana Collado, Allison Lee, Lonesome Grey, Jose Tirado, Mandy Burgan, Christine Alexander, Beth Schwartz, Linda Reiling, Tom Schafer, Rachelle Coba, Jevon Olea and more. There will be spoken word by Alonso, Mark A.S., Carlton Buller, Darrell Davis, Carlos Miller, Adam Schachner, Heather Kashick, Zarifa, Jonathan Rose, Barbara Lang, Joe McNair, Oscar Fuentes and more. There will be dance performances by Elviza, Stacy Oh and more. There will be live art by Linx and Anibal Fernandez. Plus there will be the Emerge Miami Bake Sale and the Interactive Improv Finale Jam. We hope you can join us and please spread the word! www.wallflowergallery.com www.myspace.com/wallflowergallery |
