MIAMI, FL – May 7, 2020 – (LATINX NEWSWIRE) – On Tuesday, May 5th, 2020, Cinco de Mayo was reimagined when thousands of viewers across the world came together for an epic first of its kind, livestream fundraiser, Alt\u00edsimo Live (<\/span>www.AltisimoLive.com<\/span><\/a>) music and pop culture festival celebrating farmworkers’ contributions during the COVID-19 pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Via livestream from the Mana RC Cola Plant in Wynwood Miami, Moishe Mana was joined by City of Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, a recent COVID-19 survivor. The event was sponsored by Mana Wynwood, and included the unveiling of a monumental mural wall \u201cEl Sembrador\u201d painted by two local celebrity artists, Luis Valle and Ivan Roque. Alt\u00edsimo Live viewers were given live updates from the Mana RC Cola Plant in Wynwood, thanks to the Moishe Mana who sponsored the entire Miami pop-up event. The event included four segments including a musical tribute to the Legendary Tito Puente with Tito Puente Jr. playing his timbales to \u201cOye Como Va\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe breathtaking, and colorful wall mural ‘El Sembrador,’ completed by Ivan Roque and Luis Valle depicts a harvester planting seeds to sow Florida\u2019s harvest of oranges, avocados in an infusion of tropical colors,\u201d said Susana Baker, Mana Community Outreach Director, who hosted the Miami Alt\u00edsimo Live pop-up event. \u201cThe beautiful painting can be seen at the RC Cola Plant in Wynwood, which invites the public to visit this free mural museum with over 150 monumental murals, a must see when normality returns in tourism\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were honored to be invited to participate and recognize the contributions of America\u2019s farmworkers by Enrique Santos and Manny Ruiz the co-creators of Alt\u00edsimo Live,\u201d said Moishe Mana, founder and creator of Mana Wynwood. \u201cThe farmworkers are essential to keeping us fed, yet they are often overlooked, and especially now with this pandemic, I felt compelled to join forces with Alt\u00edsimo Live to honor the farmworkers who are essential workers\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most poignant moment was when six graduating seniors from New World School of the Arts took center stage to share their dreams, with Mayor Suarez and Moishe Mana Altisimo who honored them by providing a certificate of recognition for their achievements as COVID seniors of 2019-2020. COVID-19 has stolen the most important moment for all seniors as graduation ceremonies and senior activities were cancelled for their senior year. The seniors representing were: Chantal Bonitto, Luis-Pablo Garcia, Jose Gomez, Celeste Castellon, Daniela Couso, and Jamie Mcquagge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to recognize and honor these hard working seniors, that unfortunately due to COVID 19 many senior events were erased due to this terrible pandemic, we wanted to give them a tribute to honor all seniors across the nation and world, the Class of 2020,\u201d said Susana Baker, event coordinator for Altisimo Live Miami and Mana\u2019s Community Outreach Director.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
