...so what's up at the MANILA POLO CLUB on 11th
October…? Something daring, different, and VERY DESPUES…The MORRIS
MORIER INSTITUTE OF LEARNING, INC. will hold a NUDE photographic art
exhibition by MR. MARLON DESPUES, a globetrotting Filipino-American
photographer, to be held at 4.00pm, 11th October, 2005 at The
Manila Polo Club, Forbes Park, Makati City. Expected guests include
embassy officials, representatives of international organizations,
and everyone else curious about the eccentric artist. There will be
a bazaar, raffle prizes and giveaways courtesy of our generous
sponsors such as UNIVERSAL ROBINA CORPORATION, THE COCONUT COMPANY,
and JAMAICAN PATTIES.

All proceeds of this fund-raising activity will go to
support the educational and computer literacy programs of THE MORRIS
MORIER INSTITUTE, ILOILO FORT SAN PEDRO LIONS CLUB, and THE ROTARY
CLUB OF KALIBO, which have less fortunate children under their
wings. This will also promote Mr. Despues' international talent in
the local scene. He has graciously donated 100 photographic art
pieces to be sold during the exhibition starting at PHP30, 000 PER
ARTWORK. If you're adventurous and passionate about the arts, you
are invited to the exhibition! Forget your inhibitions, this is
literally an Exhibition!

It IS quite an approach with a cause for the
financial and beneficial support of needy street children and their
families. This is just the beginning of a string of other equally
eye-opening exhibits and a book sometime next year, which will be a
collection of his best pieces. Host Matt Hadfield will add charm to
the whole event. Need we say more?!? See you there! For queries,
