Dear friends,


It is with great anticipation I personally invite you to a lovely evening in my gallery to meet a young lady who is taking the world by storm.  Alex Rose is a marine biologist, science editor of Ocean Geographic Magazine, a master diver with more than 700 dives under her belt, a professional violinist and a modern day AQUANAUT!  And all this before the ripe young age of 31!  Please watch a clip from the WomanScape video below to learn more about Alex and her work with Blue Ring, a not for profit she started one year ago to raise funds for scientific exploration and ambitious water projects to safeguard our collective futures.  

Join me to learn more about how we can reverse the damage we have inadvertently caused such as plastic pollution, the dying of our coral reefs, the loss of 90% of the large fish in our oceans and much more this Friday, June 29th at Hilton | Asmus Contemporary.  

The highlight of our evening will be a Skype call with the living legend of our time, Dr. Sylvia Earle.  This  special fundraiser is designed not just to save the oceans, but to save our own lives, our children's and our children's children.  As Dr. Earle poetically states, "NO BLUE, NO GREEN."  Details to purchase tickets are below.  

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow night!!! 
Arica Hilton

Alex created Blue Ring to offset the damage that we, the inhabitants of our planet, have inadvertently caused. I recently interviewed Alex for our video series on WomanScape and learned a great deal about what we are doing to our oceans and life on earth.  click here to read more
