END OF MEMORANDUM
The Wallflower Gallery's Art Activism Campaign
Plans for the Future - Along The Horizon
Within The Wallflower Gallery's Art Activism Campaign there are series of short term and long term goals.
While many of the short term goals can be developed through The Wallflower Gallery & Ploppy Palace
Productions, there are other components that require a more involved structure of financial management. As
part of this emerging need for financial flexibility and support strength, we are working to establish a non - profit
organization that will directly connect with The Wallflower Gallery & Ploppy Palace Productions.
At this point we are establishing a non - profit organization called Artists for Community Evolution or A.C.E.
As a non - profit organization, A.C.E. would be able to accept donations and provide tax deductions to the
contributors. At the same time, A.C.E. could work with grants and more specialized funding that standard
corporations would not be eligible to receive.
While The Wallflower Gallery does meet some of the criteria of a non -profit organization, there are certain
standards that this emerging artistic institute could not comply with and therefore makes The Wallflower
Gallery ineligible for non - profit status. As a result, we have designed A.C.E. to meet the non - profit
organization criteria and integrate into the dynamics of The Wallflower Gallery & Ploppy Palace Productions.
As part A.C.E.'s foundation, we have created a format for artist assistance on various levels. Part of the support
system will include individual consultation for artists to develop their materials as they work on product
development. Another component will focus on financial support as the artists work to apply for grants for
projects. Two of the more adventurous aspects of A.C.E. includes an artist health care package, as well as a
retirement program that artists can utilize for their personal health and financial future. While these two facets
still require much more research and practical planning, these are very important features for artists in today's
world.
At this point, we have filed the Articles of Incorporation with the State of Florida for Artists for Community
Evolution and we are preparing the paperwork for the IRS for the 501 C 3 tax status. Within this format, we
are working to establish A.C.E.'s Board Of Directors. Part of the next progression includes preparing a series
of programs, formatting the community outreach and preparing the financial foundation that will allow
contributors to utilize the tax deductions associated with a non - profit organization.
We are currently working on structuring the operational foundation for Artists for Community Evolution and
we are looking for contributors and volunteers who will handle certain components of this new organization.
Many of The Wallflower Gallery's resources will be available to Artists for Community Evolution and we
are planning an expansion to handle the influx of paperwork and staffing that would be involved in this new non-
profit organization.
If you would like to get more information about A.C.E. or contribute to this organization as we develop the
foundational format, please feel free to contact us.
We welcome you to join us in The Wallflower Gallery's Art Activism Campaign and share in The Local Art
Experience.
Thank you for your effort.

The Wallflower Gallery
Developing A Business With Artistic Vision
Since 1997 when The Wallflower Gallery first opened its doors, this emerging artistic institution has become a
hub for community interaction, a place for an exchange of ideas and a space to explore the potential of creative
endeavors. Now as we are about to celebrate The Wallflower Gallery's 8 Year Anniversary on Saturday, May
21, 2005, there is time for reflection on the past achievements as well as the need to contemplate the patterns for
future goals.
As an artistic business, The Wallflower Gallery works with a variety of unique dynamics that help to shape the
contours of organization and development. The creative elements and structural components that allow for an
assortment of visual art, spoken word, dance, theatre, independent film, a diverse selection of music and multi-
media productions all require specific arrangements and orderly guidance in order to be showcased properly and
professionally. At the same time, there are business mandates that require proper attention towards the expenses,
paperwork, governmental interaction, staffing, safety and other more rigid commercial demands. The Wallflower
Gallery strives to balance both sides of this format with a entrepreneurial vision and proper professionalism.
It is important to note that while many people dream of working with or establishing a space like The Wallflower
Gallery, most are notable to reach the goals of creating and maintaining a fully funktional business. Oftentimes,
this is not reflected on the effort involved or the desire to create something fulfilling for the community, but
frequently the lack of sustainability comes from external circumstances, organizational structure, the required
support or the ability to generate a financial return. At the same time, it is very important to note that there are
many long hours involved, tedious tasks to balance, last minute changes to stabilize, low profit margins and thin
budgets to maintain. Yet even with some strong financial support and some good ideas, there is also the need for
open minds and caring hearts to guide an honest and sincere artistic institution. While The Wallflower Gallery
may not yet be the ideal model of a streamlined and highly efficient business, we have been able to develop an
operation that reaches certain goals and utilizes a strong network of individuals who want to participate and
contribute towards maintaining this business.
Much of The Wallflower Gallery's success is derived from the notion of establishing a business that reaches out
to our South Florida Arts & Music Scene and providing space and resources for individuals as well as for the
collective cultural community. The foundation for sharing and creating connections is essential for generating
results on a broader scale. By focusing on how people of different backgrounds can come together and share an
appreciation for different artistic mediums, we are able to expand the impact of our grassroots campaign through
innovative marketing and layered networking. Part of The Wallflower Gallery's organizational format comes
from the creative diversity of our South Florida talent as well as from the ability to grow past the limitations of our
previous goals. In this capacity, it is important to learn from the successes and shortcomings in order to build to
higher levels. By realizing that artistic and business accomplishments develop through patterns of evolution and
new challenges, The Wallflower Gallery continues to refine our organizational practices and enhance our
structural components.
By continuing to reinvest our resources and energy into The Wallflower Gallery, the ability to establish positive
results is expanded through levels of cooperation and applied knowledge. As a group project, The Wallflower
Gallery continues to reach out to more people who want to participate in this innovative endeavor since we
continue to tie together community consciousness and sentient expression with a broad business design. Through
an increased format of promotions, product development and networking, The Wallflower Gallery expands our
innovative hub and looks towards the future with a focused vision.

The Wallflower Gallery
A Hub For Community Involvement
Since 1997 The Wallflower Gallery has consistently worked to establish a foundation for artistic interaction and
community involvement. With an expansive vision, the people at The Wallflower Gallery have developed an
innovative structure to organize talent and resources through a multi - faceted network. By utilizing a layered format
that includes featured visual art exhibitions, a performance showcase space with a versatile stage and audience seating,
as well as a store for local art and music, The Wallflower Gallery offers artists a wide variety of options to expose
their talents and innovative skills. In addition The Wallflower Gallery maintains multi -media equipment for
presentations and recording, as well as a series of complimentary production services including photography and
graphic design. At the same time, it is important to note that hardware and physical components alone will not
empower an unprecedented business arrangement. As part of the organizational structure, there is an intensive
arrangement and a formative design that allows for the artistic cohesion to mesh the individual styles into a larger
picture. By focusing on the broader Mission of building a community base and connecting with a diverse group of
artists, The Wallflower Gallery has proven to be authentically committed to the cause of supporting emerging and
established artists throughout South Florida and beyond.
Part of artistic energy associated with The Wallflower Gallery comes from the people who are directly involved in
this creative endeavor. This business is organized and staffed by artists of all types including writers, dancers, singers,
musicians, painters, photographers and multi -media designers. At the same time, many of the support people are
actively involved in various creative endeavors on their own and join The Wallflower Gallery for selected projects
and assorted programs. Often times, artists are introduced to each other through The Wallflower Gallery and their
distinctive talents are combined in unique projects to expand their individual skills, support resources and promotional
networks. Through these collective arrangements, The Wallflower Gallery re- enforces certain community interaction
features and strengthens The Wallflower Gallery's position as a hub for meeting new people and building on
relationships that are already developing. By focusing proper attention towards the artists and their artwork, The
Wallflower Gallery maintains the parameters of being a group project with benefits for all who are involved.
Even the way that events at The Wallflower Gallery are scheduled becomes a distinctive part of the artistic
interaction. Since 1999, The Wallflower Gallery has not presented the same show twice. There is always a distinctive
arrangement that strives to bring different artists and performers together. Each scheduled performance has a
customized line -up that offers the performers and audience members with a unique experience. In addition there is
the ability to enhance the showcase experiences with the series of consecutive events that are featured at The
Wallflower Gallery. At the same time, the meshing of visual artists, poets, dancers, actors and musicians provides
a spirited creative energy that empowers the individuals and collective scene. With an assortment of programs that are
designed to engage individuals and build positive experiences, The Wallflower Gallery provides a dynamic foundation
for artistic achievement.
Now we must all come together and work to support The Wallflower Gallery as we continue to build and enhance
the promotional, marketing and production services that will lift this business and the artists involved into a position
that is better for growth and sustainability. By creating a foundation that has proven to be beneficial to so many
different people, it is imperative to utilize our dynamic and eclectic network of people and organizations to help
maintain The Wallflower Gallery. There are many different volunteer opportunities for people including promotions,
fundraising, facility maintenance and community outreach. At the same time, it is also rewarding to attend the events
at The Wallflower Gallery and support the artists who are presenting their art here. We welcome you to get involved
in The Wallflower Gallery and share in the positive experiences that are associated with this expansive and
stimulating group project!

Artists for Community Evolution - A.C.E.
Building a Progressive Foundation for Cultural Development
Artists for Community Evolution (A.C.E.) is a developing organization that strives to bring people together and create
a foundation for positive change. While utilizing South Florida as our base, we are establishing a structural dynamic
that will provide resources and support to emerging and established artists. Some of our focal points include
educational enhancements, individual and organizational networking, financial support assistance, product development
consultations, marketing guidance and individual health care. These goals reflect the challenges of independent artists
in the 218` century.
As a support organization, A.C.E. continues to build a communications network that provides direction with experience
and practical knowledge. One of A.C.E's main support structures comes from the interaction of businesses, community
organizations, government support programs, private foundations and concerned individuals who work together.
Within this dynamic, A.C.E. will utilize our resources to assist in grants and other financial support services. By
focusing on the business aspects of the liberal arts, A.C.E. works to establish a solid foundation for various creative
enterprises.
Through A.C.E.'s educational components and outreach programs, individuals will have greater access to artistic
guidance and classes. Currently, A.C.E. is steadily building the structure for individual and institutional artistic
enhancement. At the same time, many of the programs that A.C.E. will help to develop will utilize artistic mediums
to convey current events and share expression. By expanding the exposure to artistic interaction, A.C.E. is working
to intensify the vitality of creativity and provide the public with a sensory stimulus for greater critical thinking.
At the same time, A.C.E. is currently developing a program to create an artist health care package under a group plan.
This component of A.C.E.'s community support will probably take some time to fully initiate, but we are learning
about the organizational structure associated with health insurance. Obviously, we are looking for a cost effective
program that allows individuals the ability to see their doctors with quality check -ups while having a practical format
when it comes to paperwork. We understand that many people restrict themselves from their artistic goals because of
the benefits and insurance coverage related to their conventional jobs, so we are working to provide artists and other
creative individuals with an alternative. As a result, we are looking to help people find some balance and provide a
creative dynamic that allows individuals some flexibility when it come to their careers and life choices.
Since A.C.E. will be offering a wide range of services and features, there will be a Membership Program to help us
maintain some balance and organizational structure. Membership Responsibilities will include quarterly evaluations
and communications that will update us on new projects, current status on existing endeavors and enhancements for
the organization. At the same time, Membership Services will continue to expand as resources and community
interaction develops with more practical experience. Even with A.C.E.'s Membership Program, many of the services
provided will not be limited exclusively to Members. One of A.C.E.'s goals is directed through our ability to lift our
artistic community and provide the support required for our Members and artists throughout our community to reach
their goals.
As A.C.E. continues to develop the organizational structure of a fully accredited 501 C 3 non - profit organization, we
will be able to accept donations and provide the resources for a tax deduction. We are currently filed as an incorporated
business in the State of Florida and we are in the process of filing for our 501 C 3 tax status with the IRS.
Within this emerging community organization, A.C.E. will continue to build up a format for artistic outreach and
develop new ways to bring people together. Like many other creative endeavors, A.C.E. is a group project that
welcomes involvement and support from the community.

YOU DON'T NEED ALCOHOL TO GET HAPPY AT A NEW HOLISTIC HAPPY HOUR OFFERED
AT A DOWNTOWN MIAMI ART GALLERY
BY EMILY STEVENS
Special to?he Munn. Herald
Entering the Wallflower
Gallery recently, laughter
floated down a narrow stair-
case leading to the second -
story lobby.
It was happy hour, but the
laughter did not seem forced
or overbearing. Instead it
seemed, well, natural.
That would be in keeping
with the Wallflower's weekly
Holistic Happy Hour, where

hothead can unwind with
organic juices, massages and
other relaxation techniques
and therapies.
On a recent Friday, the
source of the laughter was
three people who stood in a
small puddle of soapy resi-
due, surrounded by a floating
cloud of iridescent bubbles.
Gallery owner C.D. Flash
— people know him simply as
Flash— calls it `bubble ther-
apy," and it's one of the relax-
ation techniques he and his
associates employ at the
weekly holistic happenings.
The concept o£the holistic
happy hours, he says, "is the
idea of giving an alternative
to traditional happy hours.
It's more of an artistic envi-
ronment, and it gees with our
idea of being an all -ages
venue."
Aside from the bubble
therapy, the happy hours —
which have been taking place
for a couple of months —
nave seen groups of up to li
people getting massages,
playing charades or chess,
watching independent films,
browsing the selection of
locally produced crafts, or
just hanging out and talking.
"It's kind of a fun, different
sort of atmosphere," said Tia
Williams, a legal assistant
who is a regular at the events.
"I like the whole alternative
approach; it's not the usual
meat - market gathering. It's
more of a get-in- touch -with-

Flash also noted that part
of what makes these Friday
evenings an alternate choice
is the type of beverages
served: organic juices, teas
and coffees as opyosed to
anything with alcohol.
"Our philosophy is that if
you get good people in a
room together, something
good will happen," he said.
"When they're sober and
more focused in the moment,
they can be themselves more.
Its less pretentious and more
positive."
While the Wallflower Gal-
