In the Magic City’s version of Pandora’s tale, hope isn’t the only thing left in the box. Peek inside and you’ll find enough art, poetry, and performance art to ease the ills of these soul-withering times. This Friday at 8 p.m. at the Margulies Warehouse the fifth annual Hope Blossoms: An Art Happening will gather scores of local and international creative types for an unprecedented fundraiser benefiting the Lotus House Women’s Shelter.
“This is an artistic adventure the likes of which Miami has never seen,” says Constance Collins Margulies, president of the Sundari Foundation, which operates the shelter. “Artists representing every form of artistic medium are coming together from across the country. It’s an event of historic proportions that will engage the audience in the creative process and unleash imagination as we create spontaneous works of art that symbolize our shared hopes and dreams for women and children in need.”
