За български, моля, натиснете тук: MITHRA International Foundation Third Annual Fundraiser On October 5, 2013, Mithra International Foundation held its Third Annual Fundraiser To Benefit Underprivileged Bulgarian Children With Talents In The Arts.
In the inviting atmosphere of the Steinway Piano Gallery of Detroit Mithra’s event gathered people from four continents.
Ms. Kyoko Kashiwagi (violin) and Ms. Angelina Pashmakova (piano) captivated the audience with their masterly performance of
music by Mozart, Chopin, Pancho Vladigerov and Bartok. The high point of the concert was the premiere of the Sonata for
Piano # 6 by Velislav Zaimov. The Bulgarian composer created the Sonata for Ms. Pashmakova in 2012. After the concert, Mithra’s guests enjoyed an after-glow reception surrounded by the art works of the participants in Mithra’s Art Workshop for Underprivileged Bulgarian Children with Talents in the Fine Arts. More than twenty works in different media were offered for sale in order to raise money for Mithra’s next project in Bulgaria. The greeting cards made by the children attracted the most interest. For their creation, the young artists used materials ranging from fabrics to wood. The live auction at the end of the fundraiser brought a lot of enthusiasm and fun. Donations from a number of businesses helped in Mithra’s efforts to raise funds to support its mission: Empowerment through Education, Art and Culture. All proceeds from the fundraiser will benefit underprivileged Bulgarian children with talents in the arts. Mithra International Foundation would like to express its profound gratitude to Ms. Kyoko Kashiwagi and Ms. Angelina Pashmakova for donating their talent, time and hard work to Mithra’s cause. Angelina and Kyoko, your mesmerized us with your brilliant performance! Mithra would like to thank Mr. Tim Hoy of the Steinway Piano Gallery of Detroit for providing the wonderful venue for the fundraiser free of charge. Mithra is grateful to all its guests and supporters who made the Third Annual Fundraiser a very special event. THANK YOU ALL! August 26-31, 2013 National Natural History Museum
The History of Bulgarian Third Tsardom
Told By Its
Orders and Medals  On March
10, 2013, Dr. Petrov delivered a lecture on Bulgarian orders and decorations from the Third Bulgarian Tsardom (1878 –
1946), a period which encompasses the restoration of the independence of the Bulgarian state from the Ottoman Empire
to the establishment of the Republic of Bulgaria. Rare and aesthetically
very appealing decorations, sometimes referred to as “orders”, include “For Service to Humanity”,
“Ascension of Ferdinand I to the Throne”, “10-years Service”- and “20-years Service”-crosses
as well several “Red Cross” decorations. It is notable that the majority of Bulgarian orders and medals have distinct
versions for dames identifiable by characteristic “bow tie” ribbons.
 MITHRA International would like to express its sincere
gratitude to all its friends and supporters who joined us for an evening of beauty and art. On May 5, 2012, MITHRA International
Foundation held its Annual Fundraiser in Metro Detroit in the inviting atmosphere of the Birmingham Unitarian
Church. The event combined the talents of Bulgarian artist Ivo Kirkov (IvoK) and three beloved musicians from Metro Detroit:
Susan Joul (cell), Kyoko Kashiwagi (violin) and Angelina Pashmakova (piano). The fundraiser opened with an exhibition and a silent auction of Bulgarian artist IvoK. His first show in the
United States entitled "Like Children Do" consists of twelve artist proofs completed in mixed media technique. It
is part of the artist's international project dedicated to helping talented underprivileged children. Looking at the artworks, one’s imagination follows the artist’s plume enriched by a deep color palette,
or a fling of forms and patterns, to uncover images of beauty, child’s play, or … Dreamland, hidden in one’s
subconscious.
