from 4 reviewsAJ Corrales was an excellent choice for me when deciding how to go about the logistics of my small grassroots organization. I learned so much about how particular industries work and how to use my own creative skills to foster growth that was already right in front of me. AJ Corrales has vision for foresight necessary to navigate the creative world and break barriers. Highly recommend.
Collaborating with Amanda and Avante Garde offered such a unique experience. I had the opportunity to photograph the event for TheirStory second annual event and it was clear that Amanda invested significant effort to empower attendees. The venue's atmosphere was welcoming and beautiful, creating a glamorous scene. The event featured art, merchandise, catering, beverages, and live performances. The professionalism and passion of the staff and organization were evident throughout. I would attend any upcoming community events in the future!
I've been to multiple Avante Garde events and all have been expertly executed. One of my favorites was the Sustainable Courtute event last year. It was an incredible blend of culture, fashion, and bringing awareness to a good cause. The event was impactful and well organized. I was also fortunate enough to see some of the behind-the-scenes and planning that went into the event. Amanda managed the fashion designers, makeup artists, bartenders, vendors, event space--all of it! She is extremely professional and always thinks two steps ahead. I can't recommend her event management services enough!
Being apart of the Creative Business virtual event helped me understand the needs of our creatives in 2024 . Avante Garde does an excellent job of building community, showing authentic support, and being a great resource for artist who want to change the world with their art! 10 out of 10!!
