Osun’s Village Miami Nigerian Osun Festival 7/30/13

Ore Yeye Osun!
Join us at the Miami River on Tuesday July 3oth, as we Celebrate our upcoming “SACRED JOURNEY” to Nigeria, for the August 23, 2013 World Osun Osogbo Festival and Pay Homage to the Goddess of the River. Osun Osogbo is the site of the Main Shrine to Osun, the River Goddess, whom traditionalists from many cultures in The Diaspora pay homage to.
Oshun, or Ochun (pronounced [ɔʃún]) in the Yoruba religion, is an Orisha who reigns over love, intimacy, beauty, wealth and diplomacy. She is worshiped also in Brazilian Candomblé Ketu, with the name spelled Oxum. She should not be confused, however, with a different Orisha of a similar name spelled “Osun,” who is the protector of the Ori, or our heads and inner souls. ochun relates mostly to woman but also man.

Attributes: The number 5, the color yellow, gold, metal brass, peacock feathers, mirrors, honey,
Patronage: love, marriage, maternity, beauty, rivers

Ọṣhun is beneficent, generous and very kind. She does, however, have a horrific temper, one which she seldom ever loses. When she does, it causes untold destruction. Oshun is said to have gone to a drum festival one day and to have fallen in love with the king-dancer Shango, god of lightning & thunder. Since that day, Shango has been married to Oba, Oya, and Oshun, though Oshun is said to be considered his principal wife.

All forms of socio-cultural developments have some attributes of celebration and thanksgiving to the Almighty Spiritual Force. Festivals are therefore regarded as important socio-cultural means of supplications to the Supreme Being, at most times through intermediaries according to different individual’s belief. Consequently, the month of August of every year has become a unique month among the people of Osogboland. It is the month of celebration, traditional cleansing of the city and cultural reunion of the people with their ancestors and founders of the Osogbo Kingdom. The celebration of Osun Osogbo Festival is a period of stocktaking and assemblage of all sons and daughters of Osogboland and most especially Yoruba speaking people both in Nigeria and Diaspora.

The origin of the Festival according to historical records can be described as an account of the legendary encounter between the early settlers / founders of Osogbo with the Osun Osogbo deity. In about 1370AD the founder of Osogbo, Oba Gbadewolu Larooye and the great hunter Olutimehin settled in the sacred Osun forest to establish the kingdom and actualized a pact of association and togetherness with the River Osun deity. Since then Osogbo has remained peaceful, progressive and benevolent city without any ravage of war or pestilence. This pact of association, which is rekindled every year in the month of august, is the foundation of a cultural fiesta that has catapulted itself into world recognition as one of the largest tourist attraction in Nigeria.

The cultural celebration tagged Osun Osogbo Festival has a two-week programmed of events starting with the spiritual cleansing of the town. This is generally known as Ìwòpòpò, followed by Olójúmérìndínlógún which is the lightening of the centuries old 16-points lamp three days later. Ìboríadé – the assemblage of all the crowns of past rulers (Ataojas) for blessings follows some four days later. The Festival’s Grand Finale showcases the cultural procession of the people to the Osun Grove.

Essentially, these activities with other associated onea are to springboard cultural tourism development in Osun state and generally in Nigeria. Despite the influence of western civilization, education and religion, the Festival has to a very large extent manifested its originality, authenticity and acceptability among nations worldwide. The Osun Grove was enlisted officially as a World Heritage Site by United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in Durban, South Africa to the joy of the people and the government of Federal Republic of Nigeria in July 2005.

Corporate sponsorship and individual’s identification with any of the festival events will therefore be a rare opportunity to advance corporate relations, products and services patronage with the fulfillment of discharging corporate social responsibilities and national obligations to the Osogbo community, the Government and people of Nigeria.

Grammy®-nominated soul jazz vocal sensation Gregory Porter is one of the most captivating blues baritone voices in music today. The New York Times wrote, “Gregory Porter has most of what you want in a male jazz singer, and maybe a thing or two you didn’t know you wanted.” Hailed by the Huffington Post as “…the brilliant new voice of jazz,” Porter speaks from the heart as the soulful spirit of the ’70s, epitomized by such artists as Lou Rawls and the Chi-Lites, echoes forth in his style.

“His artistry has drawn raves at every stop on his current tour.” — Billboard

In the chaotic decade following the Civil War, a group of young ex-slaves in Nashville, Tennessee, set out on a mission to save their financially troubled school by giving concerts. Traveling first through cities in the North, then on to venues across Europe, the Jubilee Singers introduced audiences to the power of spirituals—religious anthems of slavery. Driven to physical collapse and even death, the singers proved more successful —and more inspirational—than anyone could have imagined. Today, performing nationally at venues like the Apollo Theater, this a cappella group stands on the shoulders of the original Jubilee Singers, continuing their legacy of performing Negro spirituals.

Come and learn about the new Public Space Challenge and how it is a part of the Our Miami initiative, which is shaping Miami’s future by working to retain young talent in Miami.

RSVP by July 30 at miamifoundation.org/ourmiamirsvp and receive a complimentary cocktail and entry.

The Miami Foundation will host up-and-coming young talent, local change-agents and engaged Miamians at their kickoff event for two new projects: the Public Space Challenge and a talent retention project. The reception will take place on Wednesday, July 31, 6 – 8 p.m. at The Stage Miami, located in the heart of the Design District at 170 NE 38th Street Miami, FL 33137. Entry is complimentary with RSVP and open to the public. Attendees may RSVP at miamifoundation.org/ourmiamirsvp and connect with other attendees on Facebook.

Both programs are part of the Foundation’s Our Miami initiative, which fosters community by building attachment to the city, developing public spaces and retaining young talent in Miami.

“Our Miami uses research from our Soul of the Community Study that clearly shows attracting and retaining young, talented and creative people in Greater Miami will grow the economy faster than other more traditional measures of economic development,” said Javier Alberto Soto, president and CEO of The Miami Foundation. “The initiative’s programs are excellent opportunities for anyone who is passionate about building a greater Miami and want to get involved in making it happen.”

The Miami Foundation developed a county-wide challenge to uncover the best ideas for creating and improving local public spaces: parks, libraries, public buildings, markets, plazas, playgrounds or any place where people can convene and connect. Ideas can be submitted from anyone, including individuals, groups, for-profit companies and nonprofit organizations. Community experts and professional placemakers will identify the top ideas; The Miami Foundation will invest $100,000 to make the ideas become reality.

In addition to the Public Space Challenge, the foundation will also launch a talent retention project and Web survey. The online tool measures an individual’s “attachment” to Greater Miami and provides the participant suggestions about how to become more engaged where they live. Results will be made available to community stakeholders to help guide talent retention efforts. The tool is based on research from a Georgetown University study and has been instrumental in reducing year-over-year employee turnover at Fortune 50 companies.

“Miami has the eighth-highest percentage of college students per capita in the U.S. and one of the highest flight rates of those students once they graduate,” continued Soto. “It is incumbent on us to develop, attract and retain the best and brightest here in Miami – our future depends on it.”

ourmiamibannerAbout The Miami Foundation: Established in 1967, The Miami Foundation has helped hundreds of people create powerful legacies by establishing custom, charitable Funds. More than $150 million in grants and scholarships has been awarded in the Foundation’s history. Today, the Foundation stewards more than $160 million in charitable assets. Through its Our Miami initiative, the Foundation positions Miami as a premier place for young talent to live, work, connect and engage.

Cost: $35, $45 and $55

The much loved all-girl pop pioneers The Go-Go’s will bring beauty, the beat and beyond to the Pavilion at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek on Saturday, September 28 at 8 p.m. Tickets go on sale on Sunday, July 28.

From their halcyon days as America’s sweethearts to their current status as superstars who pioneered a genre, The Go-Go’s have enjoyed an amazing three-decade reign as high pop priestesses. The internationally-loved hitmakers helped cement the foundation of the early ‘80s pop-rock sound without the aid of outside composers, session players or, most importantly, creative compromise. From their very first show, the group sang and played their own songs, offering five feisty role models for a generation of ready-to-rock girls and good, hooky fun for pop-loving guys.

For The Go-Go’s, their story truly is a punk version of the American Dream. The Go-Go’s debuted in May of 1978, a time when there were other all-female bands, but ones orchestrated by men such as Phil Spector, Kim Fowley or Sonny Bono. The band was conceived in the very same gritty glitter of the rough Los Angeles scene that also birthed X, The Germs, and The Weirdos. By ’79, the Go-Go’s were beating their path to stardom on their own terms. They played every cool club and party in Los Angeles and released an early version of “We Got the Beat” through the quirky Stiff Records in the UK.

By 1981, the band was signed to upstart new wave haven IRS records with Beauty and The Beat, and the infectious debut U.S. single, “Our Lips Are Sealed,” was released. The double-platinum Beauty and The Beat reached #1 and was followed-up by Vacation in ‘82 and Talk Show in ’84. During those years, hits like “Vacation,” “Head Over Heels” and “Turn to You” dominated the airwaves and, today, continue to live on in countless compilations, movie soundtracks, remakes and television commercials.

Coming to a stage near you! ARTfusion, Delray Inc. is proud to announce the launching of its innovative and interactive program, Theatrical Fusion. Youa re invited to this special kickoff event and reception. Join us for complimentary Wine & Hors d’oeuvres and get to know ARTFusion!

Theatrical Fusion implements improvisational theater techniques to engage audiences and maintain interaction. The program uses the arts as a vehicle for community building, education and social change. Its goal is to provide “edutainment” and help members of the community make choices that will positively impact their lives. Funding for this nonprofit program was made possible through the Love One Another Foundation represented by Cousin’s Law of West Palm Beach.

Twelve performances are now being scheduled ranging from Summer 2013 to Spring 2014, in which participating organizations will have the opportunity to promote their causes. “We bring our actors and plays for free or for a small donation to host sites” Kamysha Martin, Executive Director of ARTfusion Delray, said. “The stage serves a platform for interaction. Each play allows the audience members to be a part of the host’s organization message and/or chime in on the topic”. Organizations are being urged to call and reserve a date as soon as possible for Theatrical Fusion booking. “We are very pleased with the reception of this program, but yes, there are still a handful of more opportunities left on the schedule”, says Ms. Martin.

In partnership with the Global Business Development Center, the program is purposely designed to create jobs by hiring local actors, create social change by discussing serious topics, and assist community partners through community outreach. “We are doing a second round actors call, requesting submission and in person auditions are being scheduled,” Martin said. The program also brings in subject matter experts to facilitate discussion on topics including bullying, cyber stalking, domestic violence, teen dating violence, financial education, substance abuse, teen pregnancy prevention, healthy choices, HIV/AIDS, parenting and topics specific to the aging community and their families.

ARTfusion Delray’s mission is to utilize the ARTS for social change.

As a result of the Supreme Courts overturning of DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) which defined marriage being only between a man and a woman, president Obama has directed each Department Secretary and agency head to review all federal regulations in order to determine what benefits will affect, or “attach” to couples in marriage equality states vs. the non-marriage equality states. Some federal benefits attach according to state law. These issues, and many more on marriage, immigration rights and how they affect you, will be discussed in FREE COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS by our panel of Immigration, Law & Psychotherapy Experts in both Dade & Broward counties.

Even the orange, the state’s most popular fruit, migrated from another country. Join local food author Mandy Baca as she recounts the delicious history of Miami’s delicacies from the Tequesta Indians to the present-day local food revolution.

Cost: Free Admission

The Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO) is proud to announce Deferred Archive as this year’s Grants & Commissions Program exhibit. As it is customary, the winners are part the annual exhibition dedicated to the Program at the CIFO Art Space. This year’s exhibit will open on August 28th.

Deferred Archive refers to the idea that memory is constructed retrospectively – not from past to future, but from future to past, so that events that we experience are not fixed in time, but fleeting from one subject to the other.

In Hal Foster’s Return of the Real, he looks to Freudian theory of deferred action to recover psychoanalysis as a model to understand how we construct the history of avant-garde art. According to Foster, Freud’s theory of deferred action is seen as an event that is recorded as traumatic when a subsequent event retroactively recodes it. Foster, in turn, proposes that the significance of the events of the avant-garde occurs in a similar way by a complex alternation of anticipation and reconstruction. Thus we see what happens when artists work with the idea of the archive. The archive is a distinct model in understanding how memory is constructed.

The idea of the deferred archive represents the artist looking back, activating past events and classifying them in order to understand a particular moment, as if revisiting the event with the perspective of today gives it the opportunity to really exist; a type of documentation that allows for memory to be created within the now – or, memory according to a later experience. The artist uses this model as a way of recognizing that memory is always something in the making. By looking to the past, the artists participating in CIFO’s 2013 Grants & Commissions Program are not looking for a memory, but rather creating a memory through documentation/archiving. The act of post-event documentation (or belated documentation) therefore becomes the deferred archive.

Parallels Art Show

Presented by Niki Art Studio and 1310 Gallery

Gala Opening Reception, July 20th 7pm to 11pm

Look at the world we live in. Our simultaneous existence as a generation binds us together, yet we each diverge on different paths. Our journeys are unique and diverse, yet we co-exist… close in proximity, yet distant, living and transitioning, breathing and traveling together as an expression of the collective self.

The 20 new and emerging artists exhibiting in PARALLELS visualize how they are part of a generation that is free to roam and find one’s own particular destination of infinite possibilities. The artists work makes you pause and observe the beauty in the contrasts that connects and divides us as a community truly unified not only by our similarities yet by our divine right and responsibility to create and evolve differently as individuals. They are inspired by the freedom of being who they are meant to be.

Tickets, priced at $125 per person as well as VIP tickets priced at $250 per person and providing access to the event an hour before the doors open, are available at: www.tasteofthenation.org. One hundred percent of ticket sales go to Share Our Strength to fight childhood hunger.

“For the past 25 years Share Our Strength hosted two events in the region, Taste of the Nation Dade and Taste of the Nation Broward. Now Taste of the Nation supporters will be able to enjoy the best food and wine offerings from both counties at a larger event, for the price of one ticket,” notes Jamie Balhon, Southeast Regional Manager of Share Our Strength’s culinary events.

“This year’s event is creating a lot of excitement. Taste of the Nation South Florida is providing a much stronger platform for sponsors and is already generating a larger group of participating restaurants,” says the event’s Restaurant Chair, Chef Timon Baloo, of SUGARCANE raw bar grill, in Miami.

“We believe this year’s Taste of the Nation South Florida will attract not just more restaurant participants but a larger group of food and wine enthusiasts, and will continue to grow and flourish, which bodes well for raising the critical funds required to end childhood hunger in Dade and Broward counties,” says long-time Taste of the Nation Miami-Dade chairman, Chef Allen Susser, of Burger Bar and Chef Allen’s To-Go, in Miami.

An impressive mix of fine dining establishments is confirmed to participate. The list of restaurant participants to date includes: 3030 Ocean; Bianca at the Delano; Bloom Wynwood; Café Prima Pasta; Casa D’Angelo Fort Lauderdale; Dolce Italian; Edge Steak & Bar at Four Seasons; Florida Cookery; Gotham Steak & Bar at Fontainebleau Miami Beach; HaVen Gastro-Lounge; Joe’s Stone Crab restaurant; Katsuya; Lilikoi & Company; Khong River House; Little Palm Island; Makoto at Bal Harbour Shops; MC Kitchen; Meat Market; Milos by Costas Spiliadis;

This family group consists of three brothers, Alvin Lee (guitar), Derrick Lee and Keith Lee (vocals) along with their three nephews, Roosevelt Collier (pedal steel guitar), Alvin Cordy Jr. (7-string bass) and Earl Walker (drums). Each member began making music at the ages of 7 and 8 in the House of God church they attended in Perrine, FL. Here they underwent a rigorous course of training in a variety of musical instruments, including lap and pedal steel guitars. Born and raised in Miami, each of The Lee Boys grew up in the church where their father and grandfather, Rev. Robert E. Lee, was the pastor and a steel player himself.

Zach Deputy • On his new release Another Day, soul-singer and guitarist Zach Deputy– with the help of Grammy-winning producer Scott Jacoby– taps into the spirit of Al Green, Taj Mahaland Stevie Wonder, creating a soulful rhythm and blues album rich with ballads and mid-tempo songs. The record will appeal to fans of contemporary artists like Jack Johnson and Amos Lee, while retaining a classic sound and feel. Full of hope and anticipation of the promise of Another Day, a new day, it is a pivotal point in the career of a touring musician heretofore known as a master of live looping and a staple in the grass-roots club and festival circuit.
