Getting into Fundraising Circles
Beloved Occultists... time has passed, yes, but in this time a certain mask maker has not sat idle.
To succinctly bring you up to date, there will be a television guest appearance by yours truly filmed on Tuesday Oct 11/2011 on Urban Rush just in time for All Saints' Day and I've been lucky enough to have assembled three lovely models to show off some of my most exquisite work!
I also happened to have taken on an apprentice whom I've discovered is exceptionally creative in design and meticulous in application. With both of us now working from both ends of the price spectrum we are slowly beginning to replenish the old Oculto Shop while orders tiptoe out by night.
Due to perceptive sniffing via the inter-nets, I've also managed to find a number of fantastic masked fundraisers and charity galas who are quite interested in procuring a few of my masks to be presented as prizes or auction items in exchange for complimentary advertising and referring their guests to my site to browse and/or purchase a mask for the evening. An excellent beginning overall, I should say!
a) A Breast Cancer mask titled 'Breast Cancer Unmasked' has been created for a fundraiser hosted by True Alum located in Florida. Black tie guests will be arriving in pink and black -thus the mask has been created (and just sent out today) mirroring these same theme colours.
Regard:
b) Canada's CANFAR held a classy and high energy Zumba, Rumba, 70's and Salsa 'Just Dance' fundraiser for AIDS&HIV with a custom-made Oculto mask titled 'The Conscious Crusade' donated to be auctioned by a towering, scottish Estate Auctioneer who managed to raise thousands that night!
Regard:
c) In a few short days I will also be sending away two more masks, donated to the 15th anniversary masquerade gala celebration of Toronto's CISM (Critical Incident Stress Management) Team. This event revolves around an evening in support of first responders and their families. Both masks (His and Hers) will be matched by my own chosen theme and be auctioned off!
Pictures of these beauties will follow very shortly indeed.
So, this is the update and now that things are rolling... and rocking, I'll be checking in far more frequently to give you the scoop on Oculto and all things mask related!
