The Wayuu Taya Foundation Gala

The Wayuu Taya Foundation (WTF) was created with the objective of improving the living conditions of the indigenous communities in Latin America, maintaining
and respecting their traditions, cultures and beliefs. Their mission is to provide access to food, water, medicine and supplies, education and livelihoods
for the most vulnerable communities in the indigenous region along the northern Venezuela-Colombia border.

JWP successfully produced the organization's 20th Anniversary Gala in NYC. The event took place at Stephan Weiss Studio, which was transformed with earthy tones and vibrant, hand painted Venezuelan taparas. The evening’s lineup included a conversation between Secretary Hillary Clinton and The Wayuu Taya Foundation founder, Patricia Velasquez as well as performances from Sting, Joshua Bell, Larisa Martinez, Micah McLaurin, Jorge Glem, and Sarah McLachlan.
