Huge advocate for local artists besides being a creative myself since a child and the founders of collaboARTive gave me that gift back to embrace it. The general public does not realized that an overnight success in the art world, being recognized and the many wonderful fun parties around art, takes countless hours of solidary time, concentration and the right space, lighting and ambiance to make it happen. It is my duty and honor as a Board Member to maximize collaboARTive's exposure for the Miami-based emerging and mid-tier artists need the support to keep creating. With the support of community, securing unique spaces to exhibit, create events to collaborate and every donation and purchase, helps pay for their studio spaces - the excitement and proud moments to see first hand these emerging and mid-tier artists have opportunities to showcase their work is priceless to me, Look forward to opening new doors to the mission of collaboARTive.
