Tampa, FL: Please join us for a wonderful one-of-a kind celebration combining two events: the tenth anniversary of the Florida Institute for Community Studies (FICS) and our Grand Re-Opening of the FICS Multicultural Family Center on Friday April 27, 2012 from 4-8 PM. To add spice to our day, we have invited our Prodigy students to hold their quarterly showcase at the Grand Re-Opening. Get ready for some awesome breakdance, capoeira, drums and art. The press and public are invited to see first-hand how talented our many youth (and adults) are through the lens of Friendship. Speaking of friendship, our wonderful DJ Diamond Notes will be DJing and helping MC the event.
We are especially excited about our Proclamation and ribbon cutting ceremonies, taking place between 4:30 and 5:30 PM. Please support our donors who helped to make this day possible: Mr. Pablo Sierra and family, LazyDays Employee Foundation and Lowe’s Foundation. Our local community has been generous with donations for food and silent auction materials: Big Cat Rescue, Improv Comedy Club, Chili’s Restaurant, Starbucks, Target and Wal-Mart!
Space is still available for vendors. Call us at 813.249.8100 for more information or stop by FICS Multicultural Family, 6704 Hanley Road, Tampa FL 33634.
