This November as Americans prepare to vote, the Feast of Little Italy organizers would like to remind people that Abacoa will be the place where we can all come together and be one big family. Created on the values of family, friends, food, music, and culture, the Feast of Little Italy has become an annual tradition for South Florida. Putting aside all of the politics that divide us, come November 4, 5, and 6th to experience and create memories with family and friends while enjoying authentic Italian food, entertainment, festival rides, games, bocce and more. For generations families have been coming to the Feast, now in its 14th year Jerry Somma, Feast president says “This is a special year, we are coming together to celebrate passion; passion for family, friends, music, and heritage and right now our country feels a sense of passion. Regardless of your party preference, we say come together this weekend and be Italian and there is no challenge too big that a good cannoli can’t solve.”
Entertainment
This year’s entertainment will celebrate Italian and Italian American artists throughout the weekend appearing on the Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center stage. Headlining this year’s Feast will be Salvatore Valentinetti (Heidi Klum’s golden buzzer) a finalist on NBC’s 2016 America’s Got Talent. This young crooner will seduce the audience with his smooth vocals from Dean Martin to Frank Sinatra Friday night. This year’s Grand Marshall, the one and only, Joe Piscopo an actor, singer, musician and comedian most known from Saturday Night Live, will perform on Saturday night, it’s a show filled with music and laughs. The legendary Tommy Mara and The Crests featuring his big band will close out the Feast. As a tradition every year the crowd gets bigger to hear Tommy Mara (known as The Pavarotti of Doo Wop) hit high falsetto notes from “Cara Mia,” “The Angels Listened In,” the hit “16 Candles,” and many more. Feast favorites will also include local romantic performer Franco Corso and the classically trained Elio Scaccio with their silky smooth vocals, they will have the audience in the palm of their hands with their classic Italian songs. Then, it’s time to get down with daughter of Italian immigrants, Maria De Crescenzo who tours with KC and the Sunshine Band, and has for the past twenty years as a backup vocalist will make her Feast debut.

Food and Wine Seminars
Each year national and local chef’s come out to the Feast and instruct the public on how to cook a specialty dish. In the Galbani cheese cooking pavilion free cooking demonstrations are offered.

Tradition/Culture
The Italian culture is all around you at the Feast, it’s not just about what you are eating but what you can enjoy and to share in the Italian traditions with your family, friends and neighbors. Peppino is the strolling accordion player (accordion was first produced in Italy in the 1860’s) and he will remind you that the cheerful sounds have been heard for generations as he plays classic Italian music. Bocce ball was first played in Ancient Rome and at the Feast there are courts available for the public to give it a try. The Italian folk dance known as “Tarantella” will be taught in front of the stage immediately following performances from the Goldner Conservatory of Performing Arts on Saturday and Sunday. A Feast must is to shop and explore all of the vendors selling Italian garb from T-shirts and Italian jewelry to home must have’s for every kitchen.

Family Fun
After eating all you can eat, the children’s area will be ready for you. Filled with thrilling festival rides and prize winning games, the Feast will create memorable moments to share. Then, bring your kids to get their faces painted and watch them smile.

Charity
Little Smiles is the official charity of the Feast of Little Italy. Little Smiles will be on site raising awareness with kids activities as well as accepting donations. This is a volunteer driven, non-profit 501(c) 3 children’s charity. Their mission is to help heal hearts and create little smiles by providing gifts and fun activities to children impacted by serious illness, homelessness or tragedy. With the guidance of local professionals such as doctors, nurses, child life specialists and social workers, we strive to help kids escape their unfortunate circumstances, even if only for a short period of time.

About the Feast of Little Italy:
Fifteen years ago we started with a vision to create an experience rich in Italian culture. We look to celebrate the contributions of great Italians through food, music, art and tradition. Today as we stay dedicated to encouraging the importance of family and community we hope to stay mindful of the hardships that our ancestors endured in migrating to this great country. We can only hope to continue creating memorable moments together as we share in the passion of all that is a part of our Italian – American Heritage.

Award-Winning Artist Elayna Toby Singer Announces Next Community Art Project Kinetic Intentions

Award-Winning Artist Elayna Toby Singer Announces Next Community Art Project Kinetic Intentions

att01469

Public invited to free workshops September – December with final installation set for February 2017 during International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium

Boynton Beach, Fla. (August 22, 2016) Following the success of the February 2015  Kinetic-Connections, which won the People’s Choice Award for the transformation of an historic kapok tree into living kinetic art, artist Elayna Toby Singer announces her next community creation, Kinetic Intentions. The public is invited to take part through a series of FREE mini-mobile making workshops and the largest temporary kinetic, tree art installation in Palm Beach County. The multi-part Kinetic Intentions is part of the City of Boynton Beach’s 2017 International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium which takes place February 3 – 5, 2017.

The first phase of the participatory art project features a limited number of free countywide workshops from September to December that explore “the Art, Science & Soul of Making Mobiles” under the guidance of Elayna Toby Singer.  Each mini-mobile will be constructed using fishing line and recycled seed pods from Florida’s Mahogany trees which are threatened to extinction in the wild. Participants will experience the centering, meditative process of mobile making while pondering their intentions for personal and environmental balance.

Inspired by the Tibetan Prayer Ribbon tradition, workshop attendees will also write their personal intentions onto ribbons which will be affixed, along with the mini-mobiles, to the final kinetic art tree installation in February 2017.

The next phase of Kinetic Intentions takes place February 3 when Ms. Singer creates an outdoor, kinetic “room” by attaching cables between four trees in the park east of Boynton’s Civic Center. Once the connecting lines are secured, she will hang 150 six-foot long kinetic strands creating a curtained “room.”

The public is invited to write their own Intention Ribbon, select one of the 500 mini-mobiles on display from the workshops, and then add both to one of the 150 six-foot kinetic strands, bringing the art setting among trees to life during the free International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium, on February 4 and 5. Names of all workshop attendees will be entered into a drawing to receive one of the 150+ kinetic sculptures at the end of the kinetic art weekend.

The Kinetic Intentions free workshops, open to everyone aged 13 and up, are scheduled as follows:

Sunday, September 18 from 3:00 – 4:30 pm at The Box Gallery, located at 811 Belvedere Road, West Palm Beach.

Sunday, October 9 from 3:00-4:30pm at Bootz Cultural Arts Center, located at 420 S. State Rd 7, Suite 118, in Royal Palm Beach.

Wednesday, November 9 from 7:00 – 8:30 pm at Unity of the Palm Beaches at Temple Israel located at 1901 N. Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach.

Further workshops will be announced within the coming month.

Kinetic Intentions, a creation of artist Elayna Toby Singer, is commissioned by the City of Boynton Beach’s Art in Public Places. Singer has been creating kinetic art sculpture and jewelry since the mid 1990’s and incorporating “found objects” since 2003. Locally, her commissioned works and exhibitions have been shown in Palm Beach and Broward Counties for more than six years. In 2009, Elayna Toby was invited by Habla: The Center for Language and Culture in Merida Mexico, to lead her first “Natural Mobiles” workshop. With a BS in Cultural Anthropology and an MS in Public Horticulture and Museum Management, Ms. Singer’s career in creative placemaking began in the early 1990’s when she spent fifteen years in some of the nation’s leading public gardens and arboreta creating experiences that engaged the public in the art, science and heritage of plants and the essential role they play in our lives.

About Kinetic Intentions
Created by the multi-talented, multi-media artist Elayna Toby Singer, Kinetic Intentions  is a joyful and exuberant temporary Public Art Project that follows in the footsteps of the artist’s award winning Kinetic Connections project  that generated so much public attention in 2015.

This inspiring county-wide project intends to engage and entertain the community through free, artist-led mini-mobile workshops, in which participants will be guided through the art, science and soul of creating art that moves.

As a crescendo to the workshops, Elayna Toby Singer will create a seemingly magical, motion-filled outdoor curtained “room” of 150 six foot long kinetic strands anchored by four trees. This “living” room will be festooned with the kinetic mini-mobiles and intention ribbons during the International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium February 3– 5, 2017.

The entire community is invited to write his or her own Intention Ribbon, select one of the 500 mini-mobiles crafted in the workshops, and then add both a mini-mobile and intention ribbon to one of the 150 six-foot kinetic strands, bringing this artful setting among trees to life.

Kinetic Intentions is part of the City of Boynton Beach’s 2017 International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium.

For more information, please visit elaynatobyart.com/kineticintentions.

The 2017 International Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium, February 3-5, is a FREE biennial event in Boynton Beach, FL. This event will connect you to one-of-a-kind visual art experiences. For information visit: www.IntlKineticArtEvent.org.

We Love Lucy Fundraiser

Saturday September 17, 2016
8 pm to 11pm
Passion Night Club, Hard Rock, Fort Lauderdale FL

I/we have a dear sweet friend, a Fellow Entertainer here in Florida. She goes by the name of Lucy Lucy Faircloth. This event is open to the public…please spread the word.
Many of you may know her, many of you have seen her at fairs and other events impersonating Lucille Ball. Many of you received your start on Stage and in the Entertainment field by performing at her events. She has attended many Fundraisers helping others, and now we are asking you to please attend a fundraiser to help her and her boys….
This very kind and warm woman is suffering and in pain. She is the mother of two very young beautiful boys. Who obviously like all little boys need their mother. Her youngest son asked her the other day “Mommy can people live forever?”
It has been hard on Lucy Faircloth and her young boys, because she has for years been dealing with Terminal Cancer…. She has been putting up a strong fight against Cancer with the help of doctors and other caregivers throughout the years. However, even they have not been able to stop this horrible disease…it is spreading throughout her body and she needs surgery again… this surgery which will now take her ear, and maybe even more is going to happen very soon…
Lucy feels alone, frustrated, lost and at the end of her rope… and scared.
She is a single mom, and she has fears that all single moms and dads have, “What am I going to do? Who is going to be there for my children? While I heal who is going to help me and my children? How are my bills going to be paid? Without an income or being able to function for any length of time…who is going to pay my bills, to keep my lights on, my water, my phone…and who is going to pay my rent so that I have a home to come home to, a place where my children can lay their heads down to sleep at night? These are worries of a healthy parent, can you imagine knowing that you need surgery that you will need time to heal and feel totally hopeless and overwhelmed? So many unanswered questions…so many fears, so many wondering why is this happening to me….so many uncontrollable tears….and asking God why me…
I wish I could do more…all you Entertainers/Performers who have performed for Lucy on stage all these years, all her friends, all her acquaintances, all those businesses that she has given her time to, and provided entertainment for… she could really use all our help now…She needs each person who is reading this to help….
It would be great if we could give her health, and peace, and a long life with her sons… and we all pray and believe that this will happen. But praying alone does not, wipe away the tears of fear she is experiencing now…
But we could ease her worries …with this fundraiser event of September 17th. Her fear of being homeless, of not being able to function after surgery that she must have or she will die and it doesn’t take care of herself and her boys while trying to heal from these surgeries that she will soon have to go through to save her life. Because of these fears and worries, the thought of Giving Up, has entered her mind…but really what good will that do…she leaves her children without a mother, without ….I don’t want to go on with this… but..
Can you imagine being a 11 and 15 year old boy and knowing that your mom has Cancer and……..well can you imagine. I can and it brings tears to my eyes…and breaks my heart….I don’t know what it does to you, but this is something that should never had happened to her and her son, it should Never happen to anyone…but it has and she is alone, at least that is how she is feeling right now, …
This time and disease is also shaping those young boys lives… turning them into the men they will become in the future… this is hurting them beyond anything that we can imagine…
I pray that everyone reading this can feel what this all means
Please share this event with everyone…you do not have to be in the Entertainment Industry to attend this is for everyone who would like to help…. Lucy has touched so many people’s lives… throughout the years …so please spread the word and attend… thank you

Unicorn Children’s Foundation’s Celebrity Bartending Battle

Boca Raton FL – September 2016 – Unicorn Children’s Foundation is excited to announce our 3nd Annual Bartender’s Battle sponsored by Farmer’s Table!  Come join us for this fantastic opportunity to raise awareness and support of Neurodiversity on Friday, September 16th from 6:00-8:00pm at the Event Center at Farmer’s Table in Boca Raton, Florida. Neurodiversity refers to children who think, learn and communicate differently due to developmental challenges like Autism, Dyslexia and other learning disorders.

 

This event is a competition amongst 4 local celebrity teams to see who can raise the most “votes” (dollars) in support of our cause.  Felette Branch (Gucci) and Heather Shaw (Saks Fifth Avenue), Gregory Fried (Gregory’s Fine Jewelry) and Marcie Butters (Butters Construction), and Kendra Erika (Singer/Songwriter) and Julissa Caballero (Toshiba Business Solutions) will try to defeat reigning champions Bill Kruegel (Sunshine Health) and Sarah Hassan (IM HealthScience) for the title and much coveted trophy.

 

There will be amazing décor and each bar will be uniquely themed by its bartenders, to include: a Glamorous Garden, Warriors for Neurodiversity, a Sports Bar, and James Bond 007.  There will be fierce competition, friendly bantering, and shameless bribing for votes.  There will be delicious food, a chance to win amazing items, great drinks including a unique cocktail and great opportunity to mingle with a cross-section of South Florida’s community leaders, business professionals, and philanthropists.  But more importantly, this is an opportunity to support a great cause and have fun while doing it.  100% of proceeds directly support and impact our special needs youth and their families.

 

Members of the community are invited to attend at $30 per person in advance, $40 at the door, inclusive of two drink tickets and hors d’oeuvres. Other community sponsors include: Sunshine Health, iRemember, Simply the Best Magazine, and Eye on South Florida.

 

Come support your favorite bartender and help make an impact!  For tickets, to vote, and for additional information, please visit www.UnicornChildrensFoundation.org or call 561-620-9377 x 302.
