About this Event

My name is Rene Morales, the organizer behind this event and director/producer/writer of “Ode To Living”, an original short film inspired by the instrumental music of Lady Gaga’s “Million Reasons”.

Reception starts at 6pm. Food and drinks on own expense. Program begins right at 7pm!

Featured in the Program:

• Panel consisting of the creative team behind the original work.
• Screening of original short film/music video “Ode To Living”.
• Open forum discussion and testimonials over film and subjects of suicide prevention and mental health with audience.
• VSA and NAMI Texas representatives present resources meant for outreach and support for victims and those close to victims.
• Booths will be set up for further information on the great and inspiring organizations poised to remove the stigma of mental health in society’s view.

This event is meant to bring this important issue to the forefront as I feel that it doesn’t get enough coverage. Suicide affects a wide spectrum of people, regardless of social status, race, religion, sex or sexual orientation. Because of this, it is crucial to come together and realize that we aren’t alone in our own struggles and that we should fight to live not only for ourselves, but for those who carry our same weight on their shoulders. All are welcomed to this night! Feel free to spread the word and bring your friends and loved ones to this special night!
