Thanks to everyone who joined us for the opening.
The exhibition will be open to the public through April at the Photo Workshop Gallery. Let me begin with apologising for being so quiet. I've been busy with the Incubator Program at Maket Photo Workshop since July 2017. It's been a phenomenal opportunity. These months were tough, testing, educating and just all round out of this world. Its been like nothing i could ever have imagines. I'll share more about the experience in my next post. The final objective of the program was to exhibit or publish. Since I've always wanted to exhibit in a gallery, i chose the EXHIBITION.
Here's the invite, please join me if you free. The project aims to raise awareness for Vitiligo and promote self love and appreciation. I'm extremely proud and hope you all will love it too. See you at the Market Photo Workshop. Your support like always will be appreciated. Send you all loads of Love... Baveesha Naran Wednesday, 9 Aug 2017 ... Our beautiful #teamloveauthentic ladies ran the awesome Totalsport Womens Day Race together on Womens Day. It was a chilly and icy morning, but the vibrance of the pink surroundings and friendly faces of the thousands of ladies and supporting gentlemen made the cold feel like a tiny drawback. It was a super fun morning indeed. Such a refreshing experience. Well done ladies on successfully completing the 10km race through our historic Johannesburg. Enjoy the video to see the fun that was had. Video created by Baveesha Naran
LOVEauthentic together with Strictly Signs hosted a colour point along the route of the Benoni Colourful Run. We gathered a team to assist on the day, our awesome volunteers helped with the arrangements and were up bright and early to make this day an absolute success.
The race started at 0800 so our volunteers, needed to be in Benoni by 0645. Everyone rose bright and early, Vanisha drove from the South and Matilda & her cutiepies Ubered just to get to us. I though this was so super special. We weren't really sure what to expect at this event, all we knew was that we were there to represent LOVEauthentic, increase our visibility and ultimately assist in raising awareness for Vitiligo. What was suppose to be work, turned out to be a colourful explosion of fun. The runners were so driven to finish successfully, families played and laughed, everyone was playful, happy and delightfully energised. We enjoyed every minute of showering colour all over the runners and when runners were few and far between, we turned on each other. We experience that shear exhilaration of just being kids for a day. Life is about moments, and this was one of those, felt really good to just enjoy the people (runners, fellow volunteers and the organising committee), place and energy around us. The Benoni Colourful Run, was host by the Vikings Cycling Club & Benoni Harriers in support of Kid Haven. Well done to all the sponsors and volunteers who made this event possible. To a job well done, To our LOVEauthentic team, Nasreen, Vanisha, Kashmira, Kyle, Yolanda, Matilda, Nolwandle, Owami, Vanisha, Karina, Lagan, Jay , Saraswati & the Strictly signs team, thanks for showing up. Appreciate each and everyone of you. LOVEauthentic was part of the 2017 Dermatology Congress, hosted in Pretoria from the 24 - 27 Aug 2017 . The highlight of the Congress for us was the :

We walked a 4km journey together, each step was symbolic of our movement towards a brighter future and a simultaneously a movement away from the struggles of our past. We walked together in support of everyone living with vitiligo. We walked together for self love and self appreciation.

We ask that you help us raise funds. For this April, one of our members of #teamloveauthentic Vincent Mekwa will be riding to raise awareness for LOVEauthentic's Vitiligo Campaign. He'll take on the enormous challenge in Oudtshroon, a massive 360km of mountain biking, Added to this distance, which is already hard to wrap our head around, is an elevation of 5500m. This means that he'll be climbing extremely steep and never ending mountains for majority of his time out there. He'll start this race at 1800 on Friday 21 April 2017. He'll have 36 hours to complete the race, Vincent, we thank you for your support, We thank you for riding for vitiligo awareness. We're inspired by your strenght and determination.
