The public is invited to join Elegant Events by Carl and Moreno Valley’s Family Is All That Matters (F.I.A.T.M) for a hip-hop family affair. On July 27, hip-hop dancers will bust their moves and compete for a $1,000 grand prize during the first annual hip-hop competition and fashion show event. The event will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Ontario Embassy Suites located at 3663 East Guasti Rd. in Ontario. The event will feature special guest hip-hop artist Jay Show, a special performance by Aldre, and Tommy the Clown will appear as a guest judge. The event will also feature two separate fashion shows featuring men’s and women’s urban wear, along with food, music and other vendors. A $300 scholarship will be given in a best essay-writing contest for children aged 6 to 12. Proceeds from the event will benefit F.I.A.T.M., said F.I.A.T.M. Executive Chair Melinda Metoyer. F.I.A.T.M. is a local non-profit organization that aims to assist at-risk youth in making positive life choices, with the mission to strengthen local communities by concentrating on individual progress. Tickets are $15 presale and $20 at the door. For tickets, contact Elegant Events by Carl at 951-710-3289, email ElegantEventsByCarl@yahoo.com or visit eleganteventsbycarl.com.
