About the end/SPING BREAK:

the end / SPRING BREAK is a nomadic artist-run project committed to developing new modes of
considering issues in contemporary art and culture within South Florida communities.

Our focus is to develop programming that seeks to engage our audience as participants and
elicit a discussion surrounding the thematic concept chosen for that event. In collaboration with
various artists and members of the community, our goal is to stimulate a dialogue that will enable
one event to inform another in a manner that reflects the movement between the different methods
of presenting ideas.

Our programming will include but not be limited to lectures, exhibitions, site-specific projects,
publications, educational workshops, etc.

Art Live 2012 is an interactive, performance based, contemporary "art happening" and fair in which artists and exhibitors are invited to share the creative process unfolding spontaneously in every form of artistic medium and to the extent possible, engage the fairgoers in the creative process.

We like to say, don't just see art, be it! Performing artists and exhibitors alike to step outside the four walls of their galleries, institutions, residencies and studios to join us in an uplifting coming together of art and community for cause.

Admission proceeds of the fair will benefit the Lotus House Women's Shelter, providing shelter, sanctuary, education and resources to empower homeless women and children to build safe, secure lives off the streets. Join us in this very special coming together of art and community for cause and make a difference in the lives of women and children in need!
