Acclaimed Photographer Best-known for Work with Hip-Hop Artists to Donate Artwork for Socially-Responsible Brazilian Project Focusing on At-Risk Child

Berkeley, CA. (PRWEB) November 23, 2007 -- In just a few weeks the Capoeira Arts Foundation at 1901 San Pablo Ave, Berkeley will open its doors for an elegant and entertaining evening Wine Tasting and Art Showcase Benefit, featuring an art show opening by acclaimed photographer Mike Schreiber (www.mikeschreiber.com), tastings of Brazilian wines and cachaça, donated by RioJoes.com, a live capoeira performance (an Afro-Brazilian art form involving dance-like fight and music), live music, and shows.

The world-renowned photographer, Mike Schreiber, has taken special interest in the project, and is donating an entire photojournal exhibit to raise money for this benefit. Mike Schreiber is best known for his work with hip-hop artists, such as John Legend, Mos Def, Common, Nas, and M.I.A. His work reflects his background in Anthropology, for in addition to providing an aesthetic viewpoint, his photos capture the cultural life of his subjects. To visit a preview of the show, please see www.mikeschreiber.com, and select "Projeto Kirimurê" under Portfolios. There will also be blank greeting cards featuring Mike's work available by visiting the link below.

The event will benefit Projeto Kirimurê, an after-school program that offers capoeira and music classes, as well as academic support in the areas of literacy and environmental education to at-risk youth in Bahia, Brazil. The program was founded by the Capoeira Arts Foundation's own Mestre Acordeon, who explained that his purpose in creating such a program was "to give back to the people who gave me capoeira."

According to Schreiber, "I took special interest in this project when I saw the beauty and importance of this traditional art form in Brazil. I spent over a week at the project and saw first-hand how lives of these children are being enriched through capoeira."

On December 1st the evening's event will begin at 8 o'clock and will end at midnight. Light hors d'oevres will be served and there will be additional drinks available for purchase. Semi-formal attire is requested.

Tickets are available for purchase by calling (510) 666-1255 or by visiting http://www.capoeiraarts.com/caf/events/ Tickets are $65 per person (100% tax deductible).
