Short Summary

10/15/2014 CAMPAIGN UPDATE 

Hello!

Here at Celebrate Mexico Now Festival we’re very excited to let you know we’ve been selected for INDIEGOGO's new pilot program, called Forever Funding, that lets us extend our 2014 fundraising campaign indefinitely!

That’s right, starting today, we can raise funds for our campaign for as long as we like— and we want to keep it active through the end of the Festival on NOVEMBER 1st


What this means for our campaign:

Our campaign will continue to stay live, meaning that anyone can contribute. Our goal will always remain on our campaign page. We never could have gotten to where we are without your support.

If you haven't yet contributed, this is a fantastic new opportunity to give your financial support to Celebrate Mexico Now in 2014.


How you can help:

We do have one favor to ask – can you kindly spread the word to any friends or family to let them know that our campaign is extended?

We know there are individuals that were interested in contributing that haven’t: now they have another chance! Tweet it, post to Facebook, email your friends – whatever you can do to let ‘em know.

As always, thank you for your ongoing support!

Sincerely,

Claudia Norman
Founder and Director

WE DID IT!

Friends / Amigos:

Thanks a million for helping us rock this year's crowdfunding campaign. Your contributions will allow us to provide:

  • A platform for the innovative work of international artists

  • Free events to the public throughout New York City

  • Bilingual PR and marketing campaigns so that more Spanish and English speakers can benefit from the richness of Mexican culture


NOW, A NEW GOAL

We reached 100% of our fundraising goal in Indiegogo, but the ride doesn't end here!

Our campaign ends until Saturday August 30th at 11:59pm, so hop on board to help us reach our NEW GOAL: $500 towards the production of the TACOMAPA— a downloadable and printer friendly guide to some of the best tacos in New York City.

Who doesn’t love tacos? Mexico’s national dish is also an American standard, and we are on a quest to share with you the tacos of MEXICO NOW!

With your TACOMAPA, you will be on your way to the taco-tour of a lifetime.

WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!


--

For over a decade, Celebrate México Now Festival has been New York City's 1st— and only —annual festival of contemporary Mexican arts and culture. We have been a platform for over 300 talented visual artists, musicians, dancers, authors, chefs and filmmakers to showcase their work in over 60 cultural organizations in such a grand city as New York. We are also very proud to have presented renowned performances and many World Premieres.

This year Celebrate México Now will once again showcase contemporary Mexican culture and the arts in major venues across New York City. We invite you to join us for outstanding events including art exhibits, film screenings, concerts, culinary programs, book presentations, panels, and dance performances.

Funding for the arts is very scarce and even more so for international projects. Although we have been able to gather support from our longtime supporters and venues, we still need additional support to bring this festival to you.

The Impact

For over a decade, Celebrate México Now has highlighted the creativity, ingenuity, heritage, and heart that contemporary Mexican artists bring to every arts discipline and creative industry. Venturing into to the cutting edge of contemporary expression, Celebrate México Now brings New Yorkers an exclusive glimpse into how today’s Mexican artists reflect on and reshape Mexican identity in an evolving global context. The Festival’s multi-disciplinary nature yields a comprehensive cultural picture of the passions and preoccupations that make today’s Mexico so complex and fascinating.

Celebrate México Now has been showcasing contemporary Mexican arts and culture for over a decade. For the past two years, Celebrate México Now Festival has successfully completed two Indiegogo campaigns to secure the support needed to continue this citywide cultural festival.
