Corporations Keep Trying To Bind Me 🇺🇸
Last year I was hired for a small community event in Cudjoe Key and honestly… it reminded me what the Florida Keys are really about. Real people. Real community. Barefoot kids dancing. Local musicians. Artists collaborating. Sunset celebrations with true island spirit. 🌴✨
Tag the venues, festivals, bars, resorts, restaurants, and local events still supporting independent artists and local entertainment in The Florida Keys this July 4th. 👇🇺🇸🔥
I want to hear who’s keeping the REAL Keys spirit alive.
Lately, corporations have been trying to come into The Florida Keys and bind artists at resorts and restaurants with exclusivity agreements, restrictions, and non-solicitation clauses.
Good luck with that. 😆⛓️💥
The Keys were built on individuality, collaboration, local relationships, and creative freedom. Many of us have spent years building direct connections with venues, private clients, wedding planners, restaurants, resorts, and the community itself. That independent spirit is part of what makes this place special.
Daisy Ellis of Islamorada Barefoot Fire Dance maintains established direct relationships with resorts, venues, and private clients throughout The Florida Keys. She does not enter into exclusivity agreements, non-solicitation clauses, or contractual restrictions that limit future direct bookings unrelated to independently arranged events.
Still waiting for that next event with the REAL freedom vibes. 🇺🇸🔥
I LOVE Islamorada! Keep It Local Florida Keys Florida Keys Belly Dance
