Everyone is invited to attend this major event and partner with the Tupac Amaru Center for the Arts (named after the late hip-hop rap icon 2Pac) in supporting our youth.

It's time to celebrate once again with "The 4th Annual Night Under the Stars Birthday Bash With Carlos Coleman and Friends" taking place Saturday, July 22nd, 2006 in the Peace Garden at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Performing Arts from 8:00PM ''til late. The evening will feature Caribbean and American cuisine, dynamic spoken word, dance, reggae, R&B and hip-hop performances, African dancers and drummers, as well as a high energy fashion hip-hop show featuring: ''Makaveli'' Branded; Set Shakur's newly unveiled clothing line ''Madameveli''; and fashions by Convertible Bertt, Felix Menon, Reco Chapple, and Lapellia Genell. A line-up of special invited guests including Christopher Williams, Case, Emperor Searcy, and DJ E4REAL will be on hand to host the events.

In addition to the festivities, the "Birthday Bash" also wishes to recognize and support the end of the Performing Arts Day Camp, held at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Performing Arts, where over 100 youths ages 12-18 participated in an intense four-week quality arts training program.

Founded in 1997 by the mother of the late iconic hip-hop rap figure Afeni Shakur; the Day Camp raps up its ninth year with a closing Ceremony featuring the Pac's Kids theatrical performance of "On the Shoulders of Giants," held at the Rialto Theatre in downtown Atlanta on July 28th and July 29th.

"In my 5-year tenure at the TASF Summer Camp the closing ceremony has been gaining a lot of momentum. This year, I would like to support the Pac Kids in a bigger way than ever before by bringing thousands of people together to celebrate their efforts. What they do now matters forever and I would like for the PAC Kids to understand the importance of the arts in their lives," says Carlos Coleman.

All attendees will also receive a ticket to the Pac's Kids Closing Ceremony performance at the Rialto Theater.

Tickets are priced at $50 which includes food and entertainment with free parking.
