You are cordially invited to the launch of artist LEBA’s “PROJECT: REMEMBER, Giving the fallen soldiers of the Afghanistan war a voice” on October 13th, 2011 at The Downtown LA Art Walk.
The project, PROJECT: REMEMBER, kicks off during The Downtown LA Art Walk atop five of Gallery Row‘s tallest buildings and was created to raise awareness to and honor the lives of US soldiers lost in Afghanistan.
Artist LEBA will lead five groups of volunteers in the evening hours of October 13th to release 1700+ balloons, each lit and tagged with the name of a fallen solider, from the rooftops of downtown LA. The impressively sized project is aimed at raising public awareness of the over 1,700 lives lost in war in Afghanistan, and also encourage public action to support the return of troops still in Afghanistan.
LEBA, one of LA’s most politically aware and responsible artists, states his concerns and why he was motivated to create The Remember Project,
“It has taken 10 years, 1600 United States military dead, and over 1 million civilians killed, to kill one man, Osama Bin Laden. Now that we’ve got him, it’s time to heal our country. Let’s support our troops by bringing them home, to their families and lives, before we add one more balloon to the sky.”
In preparation of the event, we have launched a Kickstarter to help fund this project. You can help us make the evening happen by visiting the Kickstarter page and donating here. Any extra proceeds raised will go to the Wounded Warriors foundation.
Interested parties can also support the cause by simply visiting the PROJECT: REMEMBER website at http://projectremember.us and sign a petition that will be sent to Congress to request the return of our troops to home soil.
In addition to the balloon launch, The Loft Salon in the heart of Downtown LA will be hosting a fundraising art show, as part of their monthly art series FRINGE, in conjunction with the project to raise money for Wounded Warriors at the Santa Fe Lofts, 560 S. Main Street, in the heart of the Downtown LA Art Walk. The show, which will be ground zero for the evening, will feature prominent and up & coming street artists from the Los Angeles area and will run until 11:00pm the night of the project launch and is free to attend with art proceeds going to the charity Wounded Warriors. More details coming soon on the art show aspect.
To view and participate in the event, simply be at the Downtown LA Art Walk on October 13th and look up into the sky and join us after the balloon launch for an inspiring art event:
The Loft Salon in The Santa Fe Lofts
560 S. Main St, #8w
8:00 – 11:00pm, Thursday October 13th, 2011
We hope to see you there!
*An Eco-Friendly Project: PROJECT: REMEMBER has been designed to be as eco-friendly as possible. Each balloon will be released with only enough helium to reach a height just above the buildings we are releasing them from in order to ensure they drop in populated areas, most desirably at the ArtWalk grounds where over 6,000 people are expected to attend. Each balloon is designed to be a “piece of art” in and of itself, complete with all the project’s information and links so that when falling to the ground, people will want to pick it up, retrieve the info upon it and participate. Our balloons are biodegradable and we are using natural and recycled materials where possible.*

Fashion night out served as the ideal vessel to transition from Summer to Fall. Numerous store-chains, boutiques and shops participated in the global fashion event, which embraced and celebrated the art of fashion. From downtown LA, to Melrose and back to the 90210 both sexes embraced the occasion to strut their style with more glamour and glitz.
It was quite the occasion to see the normally causal, flip-flop and jeans dress code of Los Angeles do a 180 and opting for tailored dresses, stilettos, brogues and bowties. Everyone was equipped with their name brand designs and dressed the nines.
Throughout the night the stores offered, discounts, hors d’oeuvres, beverages and live music (or DJ).
Celebrity, host and actor, Sam Sarpong hosted American Vintage in Melrose FNO, runway show and event. Sam, along with both talented stylist, Nyvia Weathersby and Sergio Joseph showcased a spectacular event. The bar served some tasty beverages while the show catered to your fashion needs. The show was invited the fellas and ladies to explore and indulge in vintage wear for our rendition of fall.

If you’re like me, this weekend has opened up a wellspring of relaxation and moments of freedom. The holiday allotted me free-time for a fashionable must-read. Indeed, this quick read was envisioned for men, but I fell head-over-heels for the 10 essential skills. This book neatly organizes and explains 10 skills that every young boy should know as he transitions into manhood. After indulging in Men: 10 Essential Skills The Professional’s Guide it seemed only fair to share my enthusiasm!
Robert Valdes-Rodriguez, the founder and president of RVR, a luxury neckwear company, has enlisted the help of his professional circle of friends to produce this go-to guide. It’s full of expert advice for men of all sorts, but especially for those who are working upward toward professional success.
The book is laid out in such a manner you can quickly locate and access the chapters that matter most to you and your interests. However, each chapter is rich with enough knowledge and expertise that it could be helpful to you, no matter what exactly you are looking for.
One of my favorite quotes is, “I always say you can hide a bad belt or a bad pair of shoes, but you can’t hide a bad tie.” I’ve seen too many men walking around with horrible ties to disagree, although I think a man should invest in some nice dress shoes too!
The breadth of know-how is presented on nearly every page but there were a few that fancied me:
Every young man should get a chance to learn from these professionals. Personally, I will be wrapping this book up to send to my brother who is a newly minted college freshman. Acquiring this knowledge now will be a huge help for him. Lord knows he knows nothing about a good tie. This is a great gift to that man in your life, young and old, who would benefit from some good tips. Even as a working woman, I can say some of this advice could be a great help.
