The Cause
Travel can be one of the most powerful experiences in a young person's life. The cultural exchange that transpires during travel abroad unites young minds and voices and empowers young people to look at themselves, their communities, and the world, differently.
Unfortunately, many young people lack the resources to travel.
To address this disparity , on Saturday, August 16th, MatadorTravel.com (a social network based in San Francisco connecting travelers from around the world) is bringing its online community off-line with a blow-out party to raise money to send Bay Area inner-city high school students on their very first trips abroad.
The Party
The event will feature SF's best soul DJs, live painting, live music, local art & photography, 2 full bars, free food, raffle prizes, a photo booth, leg shakin' & much more.
Funk, Soul, Hip-Hop, Dancehall Reggae & House from DJ Pleasuremaker and Professor Belway will be bumpin' in both rooms all night with a special live set from the Afrolicious band (from Thursday nights at the Elbo Room).
Local Art & Travel Photography will be on display from Oliver Black, Ian Ross, & Friends. Also, a special exhibit will feature essays from young travelers from around the world.
Don't miss this one... Bring your family and friends. Come celebrate the power of travel . Give back. Get down.
