Location: Camino Public Relations

Please join writer and director Pablo Toledo, the creator of the successful independent feature Runnin’ At Midnite, and producer Laura Gatewood, as they raise awareness and funding for Project Libertad, a ground-breaking new organization that utilizes innovative and socially responsible methods to make a movie.
The cocktail reception hosted by Camino Public Relations, will begin with a short talk about Libertad, the film, as well as the youth component of the project, by writer and director Pablo Toledo, and afterwards, both director and producer will be on hand to answer questions and discuss the project on a person to person basis. Guests will also have the opportunity to donate to the fund by check or credit card and should be pleased to know that all contributions are 100% tax deductible to the extent permitted by law. To make the learning process go a bit more smoothly, wine, music, and hors doeuvres will be in large supply!
As a special addition to the evening, several notable contemporary photographers have donated a selection of works to the Project Libertad team. The pictures that are to be auctioned online (with all proceeds going directly to the organization) will be on display at the event, with two of the photographers in attendance as well. A link to the auction website will be sent two weeks before the fundraiser, and the closing date for purchase will be June 14th.
We would love for each of you to become part of the expanding group of people passionate about making a difference to border communities and committed to supporting the arts. As this is a ground-up effort, we would be very grateful if you would pass on this evite to other you know who care about independent films and about creating more educational opportunities for disenfranchised children.
Many thanks from the entire Project Libertad Team!
