Monthly Spotlight: Koalapalooza and Madeline Monte
Here at Ink Brigade we love the clients we have the opportunity to work with. We talk highly of them in the shop and to our friends and family. This is the beginning of a monthly series of client spotlights.
We begin our appreciation and admiration with Madeline Monte. Maddy will be embarking on a self-funded trip to Australia as part of the People to People Ambassador Program. Her and her mother came to us last month with a desire to print Koalapalooza shirts, a fundraiser conceived by Maddy herself. So cute! Check ‘em out above.
Koalpalooza; a family affair, Australian-themed events taking place in Portland. Events have included screenings of Austrialian films Mad Max and Danny Deckchair. Bands play each event and you can enter a raffle to win items donated by local businesses.
As her July departure date draws near there is one more public event you can support:
Watch Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
Hollywood Theater
May 2nd.
7pm
Tickets are available at the box office.
If you are interested in the shirts she had printed for these events there are a few left, email: koalapalooza2012@gmail.com
One of Portland farmers markets could see this ambitious teen selling homemade dog treats along with her Koalapalooza tees in the near future as one of her fundraising ideas, you can find out more and follow all her endeavors on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/koalapalooza2012
