SAVANNAH, Ga., April 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- High Style Events
has announced a new, unique twist on fundraising for local
charities. An entire day of wellness, shopping, dining, arts, music
and fashion will be held on Thursday, April
23, at the Ships of the Sea Maritime Museum.
A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit the
Coastal Empire branch of the American Cancer Society.
An organization that was founded in 2013, High Style Events
(previously Rock the Runway™) produces fundraisers for charitable
organizations by taking a different approach from the traditional
norm.
The event next week promises to "blend the old with the new"
under the slogan "The New Classic" (#thenewclassic), mixing the
classic style of one of our original 13 colonies with today's media
hungry world. The premise of the event is to provide a full day of
activities, allowing event-goers to immerse themselves in a
360-degree view of what it means to live life in "High Style."
From yoga classes in the morning to a runway show at night, the
event will showcase a wide variety of experiences. "High Style is
much more than the clothes on your back. It's meant to cater to all
of your senses," said creator Kevin
Cartee of Cartee Image Consultants. "This event is the first
of its kind in Savannah. We are
giving the audience a full day of health, beauty and balance."
Cartee and his team drew their inspiration from the struggle
every cancer survivor goes through as they battle the disease. In
the editorial shoot to promote the event, they feature a young
model that is a Hodgkin's Lymphoma survivor. Through the
photographs, the creative team shows the different stages of
acceptance and surrender that a cancer patient goes through while
undergoing treatment.
"It is a privilege to be a voice for all those affected
by cancer. I cannot express enough gratitude to High Style team for
bringing my story to life." Ozma
Niven – Hodgkin's Lymphoma survivor and featured model for
the HSS editorial shoot.
Coca-Cola, Barefoot Wine and Bubbly, Oribe Hair Care, and Derst Baking Co. are
sponsors of the event, among others. The activities will be held at
the Ships of the Sea Maritime Museum of Savannah on April
23, starting at 9 a.m., with
