SUMMARY:Transparent Watercolor Society of America Annual National Juried Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Paintings from transparent watercolor artists from across the country will be on display. Works include a wide variety of subjects from landscapes and portraits to abstracts. \nTransparent Watercolor Society of America is a national organization devoted to advancing the stature of transparent watercolor as a major expression and to foster its appreciation. \nAccording to TWSA: All watercolor pigments applied in a transparent manner allow light to penetrate the layers of glazes and reflect back through the pigments from the paper below. The whites are brilliant paper left unpainted. This light\, reflecting off the white of the paper\, makes the medium work. No white paint is accepted. Artists are required to preserve the white of the paper’s surface wherever a white statement is intended. Learn more about TWSA at www.watercolors.org.

SUMMARY:Midwest Mix Fest 2023
DESCRIPTION:Midwest Mix Fest 2023\nJuly 29th & 30th\, 2023\nSaturday 3p – 10p\nSunday 3p – 10p\nMusic\, Art & Food Festival for DJs by DJs\nMidwest DJ Productions presents: Midwest Mix Fest 2023\nKenosha Yacht Club (Outdoor Grounds)\n5130 4th Ave\, Kenosha\, WI 53140\nTickets: $10 per day\nKids under 18 free\n*Proceeds to benefit Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation\, a pediatric cancer research foundation.\nFeaturing:\n20+ DJ’s Live Mixing\nFood Vendors\nLive Graffiti Art- ft. Diskopimpsoloman5000\nHouse of RAD Mobile Art Stage\nTurkey Leg Eating Competition\nDance Contest\nTaco Eating Competition\nBrain Freeze Challenge \n*DJ LINEUP TBA*\n*VENDORS TBA* \nHOW IT ALL BEGAN…\nAlex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation all started with one front yard lemonade stand. When she was just four years old\, Alex Scott held her first childhood cancer fundraiser in her front yard and raised over $2\,000. By the time of her death in 2004\, Alex raised $1 million and inspired a legacy of hope and cures for childhood cancer. When the Salinas-Villalobos family discovered the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in 2010\, they fell in love with Alex and her important lemonade stand mission.\nMidwest DJ Production is a DJ entertainment company owned and operated by dynamic husband and wife duo\, Diego and Dianna Villalobos. MDJP specializes in weddings\, corporate\, special events and music festival production. Kenosha\, WI located in the middle of the Chicago-Milwaukee corridor is where they call home but you can find them performing shows across the Midwest and beyond. Voted “Best DJ of Kenosha County” 5 years running\, they boast 5 years as full time business owners and over 30 years of freelancing experience.\nWith donations from businesses such as Twin Disc\, Cricket Wireless\, Tenuta’s Liquor and Oliver’s Bakery\, the Salinas-Villalobos family has been able to hold Alex’s Lemonade Stands annually for 14 years\, continuing their fundraising efforts longer than they ever imagined. Dianna’s sister Christina\, (Better known as Cookie) the lemonade stand founder\, reports an amazing fundraising total of $$6\,396!\nOver the years\, Kenosha\, WI has been the hometown of a number of famous names such as actor\, writer\, director and producer Orson Wells\, actor Mark Ruffalo and actor Don Ameche. In the summer of 2020\, nationwide attention was placed on Kenosha\, WI amid protests over police shooting of unarmed black man\, Jacob Blake. As a result\, Kenosha was partially burned down and two people were killed in an attack carried out by white vigilante gunman. In the months following\, the Kenosha community felt more divided than ever. Although the City of Kenosha has worked hard to repair all of the physical damage done\, we thought to ourselves\, how do we begin to repair the racial division in our community?\nAs Midwest DJ Productions grew\, the family felt it was important to use their platform to unify the Kenosha community. Kenosha needed a diverse event that would bring a “mix” of people together regardless of race\, creed\, gender\, sexual preference and/or political views. This led to the creation of Midwest Mix Fest in 2021.\nWith a goal to maximize fundraising efforts\, Midwest DJ Productions partnered with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in 2022. In just 2 days time\, Midwest DJ Productions’- Midwest Mix Fest managed to raise a whopping total of $1240 for the childhood cancer research foundation!\nWhich is why this summer\, Midwest DJ Productions and Alex’s Lemonade Stand are teaming up once again to bring you the 3rd annual Midwest Mix Fest 2023! Featuring a diverse lineup of over 20 live DJs\, 20+ food vendors\, live graffiti artists\, a dance contest\, a kids’ corner activity area and much more family-friendly fun. Also featuring a charity turkey leg and taco eating competition featuring local activists\, police personnel\, city officials and local social media influencers.\nMusic adds vibrancy to communities\, engages the brain and strengthens your mental and physical health. There is a need to continue to spread a message of unity and togetherness in the Kenosha community. When we all work together with a common goal in mind\, it makes all of our differences fall by the wayside. Raising funds to help find a cure for childhood cancer all while enjoying great music on beautiful Lake Michigan is something we can all agree on!\nBe a part of this awesome event by sponsoring\, performing or volunteering on July 29th and/ or 30th\, 2023. Midwest Mix Fest unites a wonderful community of music lovers\, DJs\, artists and foodies for a 2-day\, outdoor\, high-energy DJ music festival unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before! \n“When life hands you lemons\, make lemonade!”\n-Alex Scott \nMeet Alex Scott: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM9GbaSsUaE\nFollow our ALSF event page here: https://www.alexslemonade.org/mypage/2895108\nFor more event info visit our website: https://midwestdjproductions.com/midwest-mix-fest\nWant to be involved?
