Community2Community (C2C), presents its 5th annual “Hope and A Future” – A Celebration of Haïti, an inspirational, cultural experience that explores the beauty and richness of Haitian culture in the heart of Brooklyn @ BRIC Arts Media House, 647 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY. Celebration begins at 12pm.
This year’s celebration will spotlight 2015 as the "Year of the The C2C Neighbor!" A C2C Neighbor believes in the mission and vision of C2C to “create self-sufficient communities by working with the community” and is committed to financially supporting the C2C Haïti Restoration and Transformation Pilot Project to completion. http://community2community.info/c2c-neighbor/
The celebration will feature the C2C Ayiti Marché, (Haitian Open Market) with international and local artisans, and the premiere of "Piti Piti", a multimedia theatrical experience spotlighting the initiatives of the C2C Haïti Restoration and Transformation Pilot Project (HRTPP). The cast of artists include international Haitian musician BélO, the CCC Boots Step Team and more. This compelling story weaves music and culture to make a case for environmental protection and self-sufficiency.
The “Ayiti Marché” (Haitian Kreyòl for Open Market) will bring local, national and international businesses and organizations together for a cultural exchange of information, services and products to the Caribbean and surrounding communities of the tri-state area. Attendees can partake in the taste and sounds of Haïti, while exploring Haïti’s rich artistic and cultural contributions through various vendors and exhibitors. Festive Haitian music, raffles, giveaways, etc will be occurring throughout.
Proceeds will help complete the C2C Water Initiative and promote environmental stabilization in Petit Goâve, Haïti.
