911 Day ©1997: American History ~ American Misery. America’s Premier Eventologist ASK: #AdrienneSiouxKoopersmith reflects back on how a #HOLIDATE helps a Nation heal.




#ASK_Chicago: 
#September_11_2018

The Mourning will never ever stop for what happened to Americans & Good People (in general) on Monday, September 11, 2001. After a 17-year Hiatus, Graveside Eulogies and Remembrances should also include The 911 Operators (themselves) who were there manning those Telephone Lines during the Darkest Day in US History: September 11.
 
Before The Advent and Arrival of  #Social_Media, it indeed was a different Culture at The Turn of The 2000s.  As I called my Friends in #NewYorkCity that morning, many Families were “in the Dark” for long, lengthy and excruciating Hours not knowing what had happened to their Loved Ones.  My Dark Days happened 4 years previously that prompted me to create a Special Holidate called
 
“911 Day ©1997
 
in the First Place. I had NO IDEA WHATSOEVER that this simple THANK YOU would resonate in more than One Way as the years would pass.


I placed my HOLIDATE on September 11 – FOR EFFECT – in order for People – my Followers – #Media, #Radio – #TV, etc. – to remember these Self-Sacrificing Civil Workers, all the better. Offering a Voice of Sanity in an Insane World is heroic.  It cannot be measured.


Little did I know that Terrorists were going to highjack a Symbolic TIME & DAY (as well as Planes) to attack The Core of The American Spirit on that Fateful Day.  Their Drilling of that Date into The Souls of Civilization will forever mar any Happiness for a jubilant September 11 to again occur.  Our CALLS FOR HELP  in Times of CRYsis with whatever dire Situation We had before us is answered by a 911 Operator We may never ever meet, but is there in order to help us, insurmountably.
 

Therefore, now that it is 2018, a Good Luck Year (thus ending in the Numeral 18), my #911Day ©1997 has been resurrected.  Sandy Whitely (then Editor of Chase’s Calendar of Events, largest Event Directory in The World) especially liked this HOLIDATE as it contained a specific Meaning, Purpose & Goal; not the hokey Holidays that others create to fill up Valuable Time & Space and ultimately to waste that Time & Space. That’s what she told Waltrina Stovall of The Dallas Morning News in an Exposé that was penned on #EVENTOLOGY in the late 1990s.

 
This HOLIDATE, like my others, was highly researched & became a 16-page Booklet, IN STORAGE until My #Institute_of_Eventology is built, as 2020 is my 30TH Year Anniversary of introducing #EVENTOLOGY as a Literary Genre to The World.

Called an Odyssey-in-The-Making, 
this is how you can be immediately aligned with 
the most popular  POP Culture Movement of The 21st Century 
as a Backer, Supporter and/or Sponsor.


INTRODUCTION:

With The Arrival of 2018, an Anticipation & Buzz fills The Air that activates other Creative Projects to occur. That's especially fascinating when one seriously considers The
EVENTS in their Life.  As "America's Premier Eventologist," I design and dabble in HOLIDATES - The Special EVENTS in our Lives -  no one else would think of and/or about.  


THE BACKSTORY REVEALED:  However, TIME keeps ticking on. To every Subject & Topic an important Backstory accompanies it, like its own trusty Shadow lurking but always within View.  An important Point that now needs to be clarified and stressed (as 2020 approaches) which is The Thirtieth Year Anniversary & Milestone that I created and launched:


EVENTOLOGY ®
THE ART OF EVENT-MAKING
Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith's Campaigns for Humanity ©1990


is that I have NO Heirs in which to pass this colossal Body of Work over (to). Plus, the blunt Reality Check is that no one thinks, conceptualizes or executes in The Ways or Manner that I do, in putting ‘THE POP’ into POPular Culture.” The only Solution is this Complex Network must be housed in what I call:

THE INSTITUTE OF EVENTOLOGY
that is explained later after this Intro.

Mellody Hobson commented in March, 2013: “Adrienne, you are quite the Creative Genius.”

Aided by The Generosity of Angel Investors & Philanthropists, this immense Body of Colossal Work that has brought nothing but Joy & Profit to Millions of People across The Planet can finally have a “Home” in which I can eagerly dig-in and continue producing and revising these Great Works & Words (that constantly evolve as I grow older), hopefully for the next Thirty (30) Plus Years.

This is the Best Investment a Contributor can make. 

DEADLINE DATE:  Saturday, July 25, 2020 [at 9:4 PM CST] marks The Milestone Date in Calendrical History - the Paramount Thirtieth Year Anniversary of EVENTOLOGY’s Entrance on to The Public Stage. I have spent nearly Half of my Life, perfecting The Days of our Lives, especially to those who are habitually denied The Pleasantries of Living a Full Life due to their own Foibles and Mistakes. This Grand Statement forms The Core Root of EVENTOLOGY.

For those of you who did not know, this Literary Genre (containing over 1,900 Entries) is what I call:

AESOP’s FABLES
with The Addition of an Action Activity
attached to every Day of The Year.

Always loving AESOP’s FABLES as a Child, I was pleasantly surprised to find one day (as I was studying Word Construction) that his Name: AESOP’s is embedded in mine:

ADRIENNE SIOUX KOOPERSMITH

that adds a delightful Conversational Slant into “Why Writers Write” as We do.  Having single-handedly created the largest Living Collection of HOLIDATES (defined as:  Goodwill, Humanitarian, Altruistic, Educational, Recreational, Fun-Time & Fun-Type Holidays) to date, The Golden Rule (of Living Life) can be restored to Civilization signifying Humanity is not rotting away, dead, forgotten and strewn by the Wayside, but alive and well, but merely in need of a Financial Fix in order for it to continue as it should and must.

Won’t you be one of those that make “that Difference.”

EVENTOLOGY is The Art of Event-Making in which I have created over 1,900  HOLIDATES TO CELEBRATE (in 34 precise Categories) since July 25, 1990 at 9:45 PM CST.  "Doing the Math," I realized a few weeks ago that 2020 will mark this Literary Format and Genre's 30th Year of Establishment.  Therefore, it's time that the:


Institute of Eventology®


be created in order to house and highlight the Great Strides that I have made to date, that includes a vast Array of Events & Media Notices that have effectively touched The LIVES of so many - in so many different Regions in so many diverse Ways.


NEEDING $2 Million in Start-Up Funds:


Calling upon my Associates and Network, I will be soliciting FUNDS (of all Amounts) in order to do this via a FUNDRAISER. It is my hope to purchase a Chicago Property (by Mid-Summer of 2018) that is conducive to EVENTOLOGY's Needs as I expand the EVENTOLOGICAL Scope moreso with the Aid of the countless Friends I've secured on Social Media the last 7 years and my Blog Writings that span a greater Period of Time.  Those Individuals & Corporations wishing to contribute will be designated as Sponsors and will receive PRAM: Public Relations - Advertising & Marketing Assistance from me in their Monthly Pursuits as Gratitude towards their Support.

it is my Honor, Privilege and Legacy to have created this Endeavor that (in a nutshell) is not only a Literary Masterpiece in its Entirety but registers as a definitive Way in which Addictions can be beat; allayed and stopped; thereby bringing those afflicted to a better spot and place in their Lives and those Lives about them.  Heavy, I know, but that's how EVENTOLOGY works.  My recent NPR Interview with Planet Money's Kenny Malone divulged that Info and Koopersmithian Code of Kindness that I have spread, distributed and instigated for nearly 1/2 of my Life-to-date.

ART NEWS FLASH: Thompson's 'OBAMA' Dreams Can Come True...

DateLine: Friday, August 29, 2008 - 11:32 AM

Chicago, IL USA. The incredibly hand-drawn and painted Portrait of Barack Obama is now readying itself FOR SALE by its Artist, the world renown Artist, Lowell Thompson, it was recently learned today here at Koopersmith's Global Communications.

"The Portrait is not for Sale at this exact Moment, but with the Election nearing and History being made," explains its Artist, "I am seriously entertaining the Idea of allowing The Obama Portrait (called: 'OBAMA' Dreams Can Come True...) to be purchased for the express Reason that others should enjoy its Technique and feel The Change that is most definitely in the Air."

With a long and colorful History of Art Advertising, Publishing, Entrepreneurship and Politics on his Side, the Creativity of Mr. Thompson, a native and long time 'Son' of Chicago is happy to now entertain The Idea of 'releasing' (t)his Portrait of the Democratic Party's Nominee,

Barack Obama for The Presidency

on the Morning of Mr. Obama's Nomination.

The Talents of Lowell go far beyond his Paint Brushes & Palettes as his Collectors, Galleries, Friends and Fellow Artists see him as a Leader in The Art World who just doesn't stop. Thompson was the first Black Creative Director of a major U.S. Advertising Firm to receive an Addy Award, the highest in that Industry. Within the last two weeks, Lowell has been approached by several Schools (in the corporate Limits of Chicago) asking him to 'come in' and show the Students his Artistic Techniques.

THE ARTISTIC TOUCH: There's no better time than 'The Present' to let this Portrait entertain, motivate and capture The Hearts & Minds(et) of those both near and afar. With America being in The Spotlight for this monumental Election, the Art created circulating at this Time (in History) will become the 'New Collectible.' Thompson's 'OBAMA' Dreams Can Come True...(as it is entitled) is at the Top of that Group.

The Portrait which was created (in 2008) is of a new Style that Thompson has instigated. Thousands of People have seen and marveled at The Original; many rubbing their Heads in sheer disbelief at the fine and minute Detail which outlines every year of The Senator's Life. The Profile literally takes (on average) 20 minutes to peruse. The Conversation that follows is encyclopedic.

A tireless self-promoter who totally loves meeting his Fanfare and talking to 'The People,' Lowell could quite likely be a Politician himself by the way he affectionately speaks about The Detail in this Work (as well as other Masters) he has produced the last 45 years. He beams when 'The Thompson Obama' is mentioned. And mentioned ALOT, it is here in Chicago, the Hometown of Barack himself.

As of mid-June, Lowell was featured in the exclusive Sunday Magazine Section of The Chicago Tribune for another Project he was concerned with, which was written by Literary Great, Rick Kogan of 'Sidewalks' Acclaim.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY - HOW THE PEOPLE FEEL:

Some of Lowell's Supporters feel The Obama Portrait should be in The Louvre next to da Vinci's Mona Lisa as its Statement is so profound. Many Locals object with that opinion and want the Painting to 'stay local.' They feel that the DuSable Museum should open a Wing in Lowell's Honor to herald and display The Works of outstanding Black Americans. Others feel that The Thompson Obama Portrait should be ON TOUR, much like King Tut was and other comparables. However, Mr. Thompson is contemplating The Sale of this incredible Portrait to the right Collector -- whether it is for Visual Usage at an Institution or to a Private Collector who admires the Intensity, Showmanship and Integrity that not only Stands for a Man and his Principles, but for The Art that joins all Men together at this most Pivotal Time in World History and Politics.

CONTACT INFO: IF you are or IF you know someone interested in Purchasing Lowell Thompson's Obama Portrait, he may be contacted at:

lowellt(at)hotmail(dot)com

When speaking to Mr. Thompson, please note that you saw THE NEWS OF OBAMA's Dreams Can Come True Portrait...IMINENT SALE in Koopersmithin' on Friday, August 29, 2008 as your Referral.

FOR MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA: For those in The Media who wish to interview Mr. Thompson at this especially ripe Time about The Effect Art makes on The Preservation of American History, Lowell may be reached (once again) at the above Email Address or contact me below for his Personal Phone Number.
