Melancholy that the summer is coming to an end? Not ready for those winter winds to start picking up? Looking for one last hurrah to savor those precious final days of summer? Well we just found what you are looking for! Get ready to kick those end-of-the-summer blues away with some retail therapy! Please join the Soho Project for "Harlequin", an evening that mixes the culture of Harlem with the traditionality of Parisian high fashion. In a night of shopping, the selling of designs by designer Kiki Paterson and jewelry by actress Anna Maria Horsford, as well as other fine art by NYC based artists, you will find your own creative side all while celebrating the enriching historical and social aspects of Harlem! What a better way to celebrate the closure of summer! NYC will be speaking of a new Harlem Renaissance!
Please join the SoHo Project at the Cove Lounge (325 Lenox Ave NY,NY 10027) on Tuesday, August 28th, for a lovely night that will not only be entertaining but also benefits the Wadleigh Scholars Program, an organization that identifies academically promising minority students and helps them attain scholarships for education in preparatory schools. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Wadleigh Scholars program in an effort to further the education and development of young people.
