“The film’s storyline of ‘Blank Canvas, Brushstrokes, Your Masterpiece Awaits’ is meant to signify that everyone of us has a story, challenges and unlimited opportunity as well”, states Craig Lucas, Founder of Authenica. “We continue the quest of introducing thought-provoking content intended to educate & inspire those attending,” Lucas added. “Hosting an event of this magnitude at a venue nationally known for its unique design and creativity on display within will make for a very special occasion. Our cast of talented presenters and performers will provide a choreographed mosaic that incorporates content of great value and meaning. The opening scenes filmed at the Marble Room give the film a distinctive ‘Cleveland feel’ as well”.
In addition, Authenica will continue with its tradition of honoring Non-Profits of Excellence by recognizing Chris Penny, founder and president of Broken Crayon. Chris believes that every young person deserves a chance to succeed in life. He formed Broken Crayon to help break children break through the cycle of poverty.
