The Matador Team is throwing a party and you’re invited!
When: Saturday, August 16th 9 PM to 2 AM
Where: 111 Minna Gallery, San Francisco, California, USA
The Cause : Travel can be one of the most powerful experiences in a young person’s life.
The cultural exchange that transpires during travel abroad unites young minds and voices and empowers young people to look at themselves, their communities, and the world differently.
Unfortunately, many young people lack the resources to travel.
To address this disparity, Matador is bringing its online community off-line with a blow-out party to raise money to send two Bay Area inner-city high school students on their very first trip abroad.
The Party : The event will feature SF’s best soul DJs, live painting, live music, local art & photography, 2 full bars, free food, raffle prizes, a photo booth, leg shakin’ & much more.
Funk, Soul, Hip-Hop, Dancehall, Reggae & House from DJ Pleasuremaker and Professor Belway will be bumpin’ in both rooms all night, with a special live set from the Afrolicious band (from Thursday nights at the Elbo Room).
Local Art & Travel Photography will be on display from Oliver Black, Ian Ross, & Friends.
A special exhibit will feature essays from young travelers from around the world.
Don’t miss this one!!
Bring your family and friends.
Come celebrate the power of travel.
Give back.
Get down!
