February 20, 2018 Mr. Cornelius Shiver, Executive Director Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency 819 NW 2nd Avenue, 3rd Floor Miami, FL 33136 Dear Mr. Shiver: Headliner Market Group Inc's overall mission is to promote and celebrate the rich history and culture of the community, through the re-creation, planning, coordination and presentation of the 2018 and 2019 Overtown Music & Arts Festival. Since Headliner took on the production of the festival in 2014, attendance numbers have steadily increased from approximately 1,500 attendees (prior to 2014) to over 10,000 attendees in 2016 & 2017. We are confident that 2018 and 2019 will be no different. The T.E.E.S. Youth Zone was even larger and included live performances with a second stage, and offered more resources than ever before. We are requesting to host the festival in the same area as last year, encompassing both NW 3rd Avenue (southern portion) and NW 2nd Avenue (formerly known as the Entertainment District of Overtown). We are requesting Two Hundred & Fifty Thousand ($250,000.00) per year for a total of $500,000.00 which is the same as received in 2016. The goals remain the same; • To shine a positive light upon the Overtown community; • Promote and stimulate economic development; • Showcase history, culture, music, and art; and • Create excitement and motivation for the community We are requesting that the CRA provide funding for this project because at the heart of this Festival is a fervent desire to bring Overtown out from under a cloud of darkness and into the light. Overtown has a rich cultural and music history that should be celebrated and highlighted which is what this years' Festival will strive hard to achieve with the support of the City of Miami and the CRA. We have attached a preliminary budget outlining where the grant funds will be utilized. Thank you in advance.
