Artnexus Foundation Invited To Participate In Belive 2011
The ArtNexus Foundation is a US-based nonprofit organization that promotes educational projects and scholarly research; channels funds that benefit cultural programs, and supports a Documentation Center that focuses on the visual arts, in Bogota, Colombia.
Because of its positive influence in the areas of art and education, the ArtNexus Foundation has been invited to join three prestigious organizations, Give to Colombia, Fórmula Sonrisas, and Genesis Foundation in celebrating BeLive 2011. Originally conceived to bring awareness to the international community of Colombia’s social needs and to raise funds to support high impact social projects in areas such as education, health, nutrition, and economic development, BeLive has become one of the most important fundraisers in South Florida.
Since 2007, BeLive raised approximately 2.5 million dollars in cash and in-kind donations to support the organizations’ projects. Over five hundred people have attended each annual gala and more than one hundred corporate donors have committed to support the foundations’ goals.
The fifth edition of BeLive will take place at The Ritz Carlton South Beach, on Thursday November 17, at 7:00 PM. The event, chaired by Lauren Santo Domingo and Sofia Vergara, will feature a fashion show by The Webster, a concert by Fonseca, “The Wayuu Mochila Project,” for which over forty internationally renowned designers will transform traditional Colombian ‘Mochilas’ into unique fashionable pieces that will be auctioned at the gala, and the Tiffany & Co. “Mystery Blue Box Wall.”
Corporate Sponsors include: Diageo, Morgan Stanley, Target, Bombardier, PEPSI, Chevrolet (GM), Banco de Santander and Sanford Health.
Individual tickets $500.
