Philadelphia, PA, August 21, 2014 --(PR.com)-- According to Dr. Pamela Ellis, president of Books Motivate Foundation and official event organizer, “Things are working as planned due to the tremendous support of Philadelphia for students and creative expressions, which connect families and businesses in America and the international community. We encourage the opportunity to enjoy and purchase highlighted student artwork as well as engagement with civic and business leaders. Our current Life in the Arts 2014 sponsor list is growing and includes Books Motivate Foundation, La Salle University, Neumann University and private donors. We welcome an outpouring of love for our students, community and for this inaugural Life in the Arts event as it will be an ongoing annual event for years to come.” Sponsorship information is available by email to: pamela@booksmotivate.org
