Janet Collins Film Launch Party

9/30/2015

0 Comments

 
In April 2015, we held a launch party featuring the world premiere of Sweet Blackberry’s latest animated short film that celebrates legendary prima ballerina, Janet Collins. Echoing the sentiments of Carmen De Lavallade, notable dancer and Janet’s first cousin, many hearts were full after the screening. Alvin Starks and Aisha Diori were gracious hosts at the Schomburg Center in New York City, and WholeFoods was a generous sponsor. Guests were also excited to meet Yaël Tamar Lewin, author of the 2015 biography Night’s Dancer: The Life of Janet Collins. It’s always fun meeting so many new friends of Sweet Blackberry!
