Tigertail's Art & Soul bash at the stunning Bernard Zyscovich-designed Little Haiti Cultural Center was a great success. The money we raised at the event and at the Online Auction will be very meaningful for artists here and in Haiti.

We partied for Tigertail and the Haitian Art Relief Fund. Art & Soul combined in grace on this beautiful night. There was plenty of joie de vivre and a kaleidoscope of entertainment. Attendees commission poema, sung along, engaged in the work of a performance artist, lit a candle, bid in Miami's loudest silent auction and enjoyed a panorama of Caribbean food and drink.
