Presenting more photography, live music, short films, and
even a poetry reading, the second edition of "Parachutes" took
place on Wednesday, August 15 and was yet again proof that the arts are not
extinct in Lebanon. Although a smaller group of people showed up at Nova Club to
be a part of the audience, the headcount was still pleasing, and, all in all, the
night was very entertaining! Roland Azar, on sound, had it all under control
with the system’s set-up and maintenance. Nathalie Jeha and Rachel Maksoud were
looking Rocker Chic as they presented their event and introduced the artists
while Patrick Mitri snapped away with his camera.
