I want to invite you to a fundraiser for the Fountainhead Residency on Tuesday, September 14th, at the home of Alexa and Adam Wolman in Coco Plum, Miami.

Not to be missed. The home is one of the best examples of why Miami is now considered one of the most prominent cities for art collectors.

The media is continuously recognizing Fountainhead as a major force that has made Miami a serious international city for art education, creation, collecting, commerce and networking. Fountainhead offers a year-round residency program, flexible and affordable artists’ studios, the Miami Dade County-wide open studios event called “Artists Open,”and a series of career-focused programs.

Each month Fountainhead hosts three national/international artists at the residency so they can create, connect, engage and be inspired, infusing Miami with artistic talent from around the world. Since 2008, Fountainhead has hosted over 450 artists from 47 countries.

Meet co-founder Kathryn Mikesell

We want you to become a member. There are many different dollar levels you can join in on. One thing I can guarantee. You will meet the most interesting and fun people ever. Everyone who belongs to Fountainhead loves life and always want to explore new opportunities. Your social life will be extraordinary.

I am a board member and a networker. We just wanted to share this opportunity with you.

If you are interested, I will give you further details for the event. If you can’t make the event, join anyway. We have activities every month and you can accompany Eliot and I at any time.

Love

Lois
