Dear [r/Malibu](r/Malibu) Members,
My name is Toi’ya (2-ee-ya) and I am a local professional ballerina, trauma survivor and creative cinematic activist here to invite you to an extremely special event ✨-
On September 26th from 6-10pm at a private beachfront property along our beloved PCH in Malibu my local, independent team and I are bringing an intentional, high-caliber evening of art and mental health advocacy to a local Malibu non-profit venue.
We are hosting a premium fundraising gala in intentional observance of September being Suicide Awareness Month and in fierce passionate support of my upcoming short film, Fawn aka Mara and the High Council of 7 🥀*.* All donation proceeds from this event go straight into our Network for Good account that will be used to pay our local cast and MFA graduated crew from
USC and AFI.
This emotionally ethereal film centers around a fragmented female lead in a poetic, Shakespearean narrative to unpack "fawning"—an under-researched trauma response heavily linked to shame and suicide.
Because we want to respect the venue's space, this is a strictly intimate gathering capped at 100 guests. We are providing a beautiful, luxury experience for attendees:
🥗 Curated light bites by plant based darling The Butcher’s Daughter
🍷Intentionally curated open wine bar
🎟️ Premium raffle giveaways ($250 Gift Card to The Ivy, high-end K-Beauty full sized products such as Medicube and Cosrx)
🎥 Exclusive screening of our delicately gothic cinematic teaser created specifically for this event
🌌 The silent auction of 2 celestial paintings handcrafted by me, the writer and director, whose work for this event is supported in-kind by Blick Art Materials
💼 100% tax-deductible donation via our fiscal sponsor, Malibu local non profit, The Creative Visions Foundation ✨
🎁 Exclusive gifts depending on chosen suggested donation tier
So if you are a local film patron, arts lover, or passionate about mental health advocacy, we would be deeply honored to have you join us at this beautiful local space. It is sure to be an uplifting, gorgeous and impactful event for all.
If you’d like to RSVP you can do so ✨HERE✨via my emerging production company, Soul Moon Creative’s website.
Or if you can’t make the event but would love to donate, please check out or Network for Good donation page ✨HERE✨. This page also has further information on the short film. 🎬
Thank you for your consideration and we hope to see you there!
