What a beautiful event at the LADV (Life After Domestic Violence)’s Gala and Fashion Show, “Phoenix Rising” this past Friday, April 25!  The event was held at TriVision Studio.  The event setting was modern, trendy, and elegant.  The Gala performance started at 7:40 pm with a welcome note from the emcee and then opened the show with my solo work ‘Unchain’.  The program also included belly dancing by Um-Neeya Dance Company and hip hop by ONE UNIT.  The energy was running high.  The show closed with GDC’s ‘The Core’.   After the performance, the fashion show started with Apoorva McIntosh’s latex collection – Phoenix Rising.  Apoorva is a talented, accomplished and award winning Fashion Designer who is also the Founder of the LADV Foundation.  Her designs were fun and chic.  At the end, Apoorva shared her very personal experiences in sexual and domestic abuse and how she decided to form the organization so she can reach out to many and help create awareness of the domestic abuse epidemic in society and help survivors of domestic abuse.  We are truly grateful for Apoorva McIntosh for having us. It was a privilege to be a part of it.  Also, great thanks to Abla Doku with Eventstagers for organizing such a great party and TriVision Studio for the beautiful space.
