MIAMI, FL – Art enthusiasts, community writers and various artists came together on Saturday, April 12 to celebrate the opening of the weeklong art exhibition in Miami. Adeave studios and Icy Public Relations, the producers of this yearly Art Exhibition, hosted 6 artists in this exclusive art event opening called Visual Collaborative. The event took place at Undercurrent Arts, 2563 North Miami Avenue Miami, FL. With over 350 people in attendance throughout the night, the event was a great success.

The Artists for the 2008 Visual Collaborative Art Exhibition were Ade Olufeko- New York, Dawn Okoro – Texas, Jens Karlsson – New York, Linda Zacks – New York, Miko Simmons – Minnesota, Tiphanie Brooke – Arizona. Miko Simmons’ provocative art was the highlight of the evening.

Visual Collaborative is an annual group exhibition/networking event focused on creative professionals and visual artists from all around the country, showcasing a rich blend of media work. These works include New Media Design, Abstract Art, Interactive Design, Oil Paintings and Traditional Painting styles.

This year Visual Collaborative adopted a new community outreach program that will enable the team to give the proceeds to charity to help build the bridge between the community and the arts. The charity of choice this year was the Voices for Children Miami- Dade - a Children Foundation that raises funds to ensure that every abused and neglected child in Miami-Dade County has a court-appointed Guardian Ad Litem and that financial assistance and other resources are available for their accompanying health, educational and social needs.To See pictures from the Visual Collaborative check out the Events section.
