CITIZEN EVENTS PRESENTS
AN AMERICAN IN PARIS 2007*
at the Event-Solutions Fabulous Showcase Event
Wednesday August 22, 2007 - 7:30 p.m. to Midnight
Soho Studios at Winwood Convention Center, Miami Design District
The Citizen Events team will exhibit their talents at the Idea Factory, bringing the company's particular hallmark, using events for charitable fundraising, community involvement and more generally purposeful events, to a showcase area called "An American in Paris”, that will be officially opened by the Consul General of France.
In addition to a fabulous Parisian Fashion Show, a typical French Bistro with Paul Bakery, wine & cheese tasting by Pierre Gourmet, a superb Night Club with 2 beautiful Pole dansers and a DJ scenarized by Mansion (Opium Group), top of the art contemporary furniture by Bubble Miami and much more, Citizen Events has succeeded in bringing Olivier Haligon, the grandson of Louis Haligon, who was integral in the construction of the Statues of Liberty in New York and in Paris, to the show.
“Mr. Haligon has graciously accepted our invitation to attend this event and will bring a real-life size of the Head of the Statue of Liberty to share with the event community. This unique piece of art was directly molded on and from the original Statue in Paris and is a perfect symbol of Franco-American friendship,” explains Rod Kukurudz.
A replica of the statue, made by Mr. Haligon’s workshop, will be raffled off, with other prizes, on the evening of the event.
All donations from the raffle will go to the Lance Armstrong LIVESTRONG Foundation, a charity selected by Citizen Events.
"Rod's vision to raise money while producing the event space is a first," said Vicki Carson, Event Solutions trade show director.
"He will bring such a positive force for good to our team. He's not just looking at the flash and pizzazz of the event, but about what it can do to make a positive impact. Anyone in this business can create beauty, but truly making the event meaningful is something else."
Today, more and more companies are advertising about their corporate and social responsibility and involvement. Citizen Events encourages corporations to take the extra step and participate in a "Citizen" Event that gives back to the community, by sponsoring purposeful Citizen Events, even if it doesn't directly tie to the bottom line.
* AN AMERICAN IN PARIS is an event created by CITIZEN EVENTS for the Event Solutions Fabulous Showcase Event. The entrance fee to the Event Solutions Fabulous Showcase is $199, then the entrance to our event is totally free.
