2 Sponsor Package | Where Preservation Meets Inspiration

Raices Gala September 22, 2016

The Ceiba Tree is indigenous to the Caribbean and Latin America, with roots

running deep beneath the ground, reinforcing its longevity. NMPRAC

selected this symbol to honor prominent Puerto Ricans whose significant

contributions have continued to broaden our historical connections and

pave the way for Puerto Rican Arts and Culture.

Lin-‐Manuel Miranda

Antonio Martorell

National Puerto Rican Ceiba Award

Lin-‐Manuel Miranda is an award-‐winning composer, lyricist, and

performer. Miranda wrote the music and lyrics for the highly

acclaimed musical In the Heights. His most recent work, Hamilton:

The Musical was awarded the 2016 Pulitzer Prize in Drama and

received a record breaking 16 Tony nominations – winning 11 Tonys

including Best Musical, Best Book and Best Score for Mr. Miranda.

Printmaker, painter, draftsman, installation artist, stage and

costume designer, writer, illustrator and teacher. Martorell is one of

the most prolific Puerto Rican artists of the late twentieth and early

twenty-‐first century and a direct heir of the graphic tradition

initiated by the master of the island’s “Fifties Generation.”

Martorell’s work has been exhibited world-‐wide and he has received

numerous awards and accolades.



Last year the Ceiba Award recipients were renowned artist Oscar Luis Martinez (right), who has held prominent exhibitions throughout the world and holds an important place in Chicago’s mural history. The second award went to Grammy Award Winning, Gilberto Santa Rosa (left), better known as our “Caballero de la Salsa” (The Gentleman of Salsa).

The Annual Raices Gala helps to raise the necessary funds for the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture to continue to thrive as a cultural anchor in the City of Chicago as well as become the preferred destination for all those wanting to learn about our rich history, art and culture. As the only self-‐standing Puerto Rican museum in the United States our vision is to collaborate with other institutions to harness the necessary resources in order to expand our programming, exhibits and visitor experience.

With your support, the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture can achieve our motto and be a place where preservation meets inspiration.

By sponsoring our Raices Gala, you also have the unique opportunity to support Hispanic Heritage Month, gaining you national exposure while supporting an exceptional Latino organization.

Our Gala will demonstrate the richness of our deeply rooted arts and culture as we enjoy decadent Puerto Rican cuisine, artistic expressions, live entertainment and the opportunity to hear from the Ceiba Awardees, Lin-‐Manuel Miranda and Antonio Martorell.
