Art Beat Miami and Little Haiti Optimist Club Launches "Dear Haiti" Campaign during Haitian Heritage Month
Art Beat Miami Haitian Heritage Month Exhibition and Chefs of the Caribbean Celebrity Brunch signature events will also be featured on Haitian Flag Day honoring Guerdy Abraira, TV personality, entrepreneur and cancer survivor.

Miami, FL - May 17, 2024 - Against the backdrop of Haiti's enduring challenges, often overlooked by the world, the Little Haiti Optimist Club, in collaboration with Art Beat Miami, has ignited a movement of heartfelt expression: the "Dear Haiti" campaign.

This initiative is a beacon of awareness, illuminating Haiti's vibrant culture, rich history, and the resilience of its people. The committee extends a heartfelt invitation to all supporters, members of the Diaspora, and allies to join in crafting personal up to one minute video messages beginning with "Dear Haiti," a tender ode to a nation that inspires and endures. This campaign will launch for Haitian Heritage Month and continue in perpetuity.

“Your voice is a powerful force for solidarity and change, offering hope and support to a nation in need. We eagerly anticipate your messages, each a testament to the enduring bond between Haiti and its global community”, says Marie Louissaint, President of Little Haiti Optimist Club and Producer of Art Beat Miami. Every message shared will resonate far and wide, spreading love and awareness through the digital realm with hashtags #dearhaiti #lovelettertohaiti #haitistrong. Join us in this collective outpouring of love and solidarity.

Some of the “Dear Haiti” messages will be viewed as part of the Art Beat Miami Haitian Heritage Month Exhibition. From May 1-May 31, 2024, at the Caribbean Marketplace, guests will enjoy the art exhibit featuring artists: Akomicsart, Dorvilier Olivier, Garry Laurent, Guy Michel, Jitterflix, Lumpkin, Nate Dee, OliGa, OurSols, Zeek Mathias curated by Marie Louissaint, MUCE and Lobey Art & Travel paying homage to Haiti on canvas.

As a tangible symbol of connection, each guest will receive a "Dear Haiti" postcard, a canvas for their personal love letter to Haiti, to be placed within the heart of the art sculpture dedicated to Haiti's enduring spirit. Each attendee will also receive a commemorative poster, a tribute to Haitian Heritage Month, entitled "Dear Haiti."

In celebration of Haitian Flag Day, on May 18th at 12 noon, we invite culinary enthusiasts to experience the best of Haiti and the islands, for the CHEFS OF THE CARIBBEAN Celebrity Brunch in the iconic Caribbean Marketplace located at 5925 NE 2nd Avenue.
