United Divas is pleased to announce SPROUT! This fundraiser will be the second of three multi-media events in this summer’s Garden Series. Dig, Sprout, & Blossom will not only feature artists from our organization, but several other talented individuals and groups as well... The ground-breaking first event, Dig, established our roots, bringing in the necessary nutrients for us to Sprout. As we tend to our new growth, we hope to Blossom into an official non-profit organization, helping multi-disciplined women artists to develop and thrive.

The second event, Sprout, curated by Sara Cembalisty, will feature a silent art auction with art, jewelry, and fashions from artists Reneé A. Fox, Holly Williams, Trang Chau, Susan Joseph, Moira Hahn, Trace Palmer, Geem Junga, and Miss Morgan Productions.

The art auction will be open for a previewing on Saturday June 12th from 12-4PM.
For more information on the auction visit ART AUCTION INFO PAGE!
The Auction will close at 11 PM. Auction sign up will be located at the United Divas booth.

Sprout will also feature a special music, dance, and fashion performance by Christen McArdle and Louis L'amour, Miss Morgan Productions, DanceEscapeCompany, and Geem Gunga.

Part of the fundraiser will include a United Divas booth where the Divas will be selling t-shirts. They will also be available to answer any questions about the organization. All proceeds from the event will go towards continued promotion and expansion of United Divas as they tend their way to become an non-profit organization.

United Divas’ goal for 2004 is to file all of the necessary paperwork for 501C3 Non-Profit status so we can operate as a non-profit organization. This will allow United Divas to formalize our goals to empower women with a greater ability to seek out funding such as grants and donations. United Divas hosts a variety of events throughout the year as well as maintaining an online gallery to continue to gain exposure for our artists and their work.
