This is a sad statistic: 81% of active-duty service member survey respondents feel like the American people don't understand the sacrifices they make for us.*

As you read this, there are over a million brave troops actively serving and protecting our country all over the world — including 100,000 U.S. service members deployed in Eastern Europe to defend our nation and our NATO allies. But as the news cycle moves on, their courage and bravery often go unnoticed and unrecognized.

We need to collect 50,000 signatures on a thank-you card for our service members to show them this patriotic community will always have their backs — and we're counting on you to add your name before the Friday goal deadline. Please add your name now to show our troops how deeply grateful you are for all that they do to keep us safe and protected.

 ADD YOUR NAME 

Our military heroes make daily sacrifices for us and rarely get the appreciation they need and deserve. With Military Appreciation Month right around the corner, we need dedicated military supporters like you to help us ensure our troops don’t feel forgotten. As our service members put their lives in harm's way, it's truly disheartening to know that some of them don't feel appreciated for their sacrifice. That's why, in advance of Military Appreciation Month, we're asking you to take just a few seconds to help us change this alarming statistic. It’s as simple as saying “thank you.”

This is the least we can do for those serving in some of the world’s harshest and most dangerous conditions. So please, will you sign our thank-you card now to let our troops know how much you appreciate their service and sacrifice?

 ADD YOUR NAME 

Thank you for thanking our service members,

The USO

SP–Arte exudes Contemporaneity in the 2023 edition.

 

Fne Art - Beatriz Milhazes

 

Founded in 2005, SP–Arte is the largest art and design meeting in the country, bringing together galleries, publishers, magazines, museums and institutions. The event presents, in each edition, more than 5,000 works and 2,000 artists from Brazil and the world in the historic Pavilion of the Bienal, designed by Oscar Niemeyer. During SP–Arte, collectors, professionals and art lovers can enjoy, in addition to the thousands of works of art brought by exhibitors, conversations about artistic making, book launches and training activities. The fair also promotes the SP–Arte Circuit with exhibition openings, visits to artists' ateliers and incursions to private and public collections throughout the city

 

 

For the year 2023, the Bienal SP Arte was notable for its particularity, the state of being contemporary in current art; marking the quality of existing at the same time; the coexistence. What happens precisely at this time, highlighting galleries that were not present in previous editions.

 

The SP–Arte 2023 program celebrated the revival of the art and design market in its 19th edition, in the post-COVID 19 pandemic period. With three pavilions filled with a beauty grounded in Brazil: Art!

 

The most relevant art and design fair in Latin America took place this past March 29th to April 2nd| 2023 at the Biennial Pavilion in São Paulo. The event received 167 exhibitors, including 85 national art galleries, 15 international art galleries and 45 design exhibitors – a sector that grew 30% compared to the last edition –, in addition to 14 publishers, 8 cultural institutions and autonomous spaces. About to celebrate its 20th anniversary, the fair consolidates its role as a catalyst for the national visual arts market and a driver of the city's creative economy. The 2023 edition featured three lounges throughout the event, all set by interior designer Marina Linhares. Among them, the main novelty is the Collectors Lounge, located on the third floor, an exclusive space for guests and exhibitors, as well as a gastronomic space – Kitchin, Fome de Quê? and Le Pain Quotidien, which were the official restaurants of the fair. Chandon, Terrazas, Whispering Angel, Blue Moon and Amázzoni having bars throughout the event. SP–Arte's official coffee shop is Café Orfeu and water will be Lindoya, spaces that definitely sustained the quality of the event.

 

On the first and second floors of the pavilion, modern and contemporary art galleries were concentrated, in addition to cultural institutions.

 

Among the national galleries, highlights for exhibitors such as: Almeida &Dale, which occupied a second space in partnership with Galleria Fonti (Italy), which has already exhibited at SP–Arte 2018, with a solo show by Salvatore Emblema and curated by Jacopo Crivelli Visconti; Mendes Wood DM.
