[Tango-A] NA-NE art + tango + piazzolla + thanx

[andrea]

Hi Everyone,

This is a message of appreciation on behalf of myself and the  
organizers of the Seaport District Cultural Association (Jim Wintner,  
Stephen Aiken, Richard Sack, and Florence Wack)

Sunday evening's benefit milonga was truly a tribute to the NYC tango  
community who came out for a great cause.

The evening was made possible because of equipment loaned by Gayatri  
Martin and the CELEBRATE TANGO NYC Summer Tango festival,
a free class given by Jennifer and Martin (attended by 25 new tango  
lovers), a wonderful mix of music by volunteer DJ Michael Foster,   
live music by Los Chantas, the slides of Seaport dancers by Sergio  
Reyes, sound engineering by Ben Manzone,  beautiful performances by  
Thomas and Marinna, food from Harbor Delicatessen, and wine from  
Pasanella and Son Vintners . Photographs that were taken by Trey  
Parker will follow.

The evening's surprise, as well as "pièce de résistance", was an  
impromptu performance by Pablo Ziegler and Hector Del Curto -thank  
you, maestros!

To all of you who danced and contributed to the support of the SDCA,  
many many thanks.

The NYC Seaport District Cultural Association  is committed to  
supporting the artists of the 'PORT' and has events scheduled that  
include poetry readings, dance performances, new music musicians,  
children's programs, and fine art gallery exhibitions to name a few.

There will be events scheduled prior to dancing at pier 17 in the  
upcoming months, so your continued support will ensure the ability of  
the organization to fare the early growing pains such a large  
untaking requires.

Events are listed at : www.seaportdistrict.org

abrazos,
andrea
