Rebellyion Dances in Donations for IVAW

Rebellyion’s Art Dance for IVAW last night at The Break Room generated a great crowd that came in support of Veterans all across the world who are against the war. It was no surprise that Amber dancing represented the passion of all Veterans out there who have suffered from lack of support after coming home from war.

Amber has a great way of portraying feelings through her dancing and  the message came across loud and clear last night for her benefit dance and silent auction supporting IVAW Operation Recovery.

"Fine and Thriving provided me with a great opportunity to do a show of my own theme," says Amber. " I chose to host a silent art auction and donate the proceeds of my dancing to IVAW's Operation Recovery. The crowd was great, very supportive and e need to support an end to the suffering of our troops, and why not use art to do it? We need more face to face interaction, more live art, more gatherings like we had tonight, to make our communities strong and our voices heard."
