We had a gallery opening last weekend on the theme of Surface and Delight. Many local artists submitted their work and this show will hang until September 2nd. Stop by if you can and wander through.
The opening itself was a nice little event, well attended but not packed. There were a couple of very small sales in the silent auction that went towards our foundation for education in the arts.
This was the first gallery opening in a few years and as you might imagine the timing was the most important thing to manage. I set up a call to artists with a submission deadline 6 days before the show and then mom hung the show starting 48 hours before the gallery opening. There were last minute details like directional signs (our property is rather large and the show is in the breakfast gallery, living room, dining room, and workshop space in front of our house) and last minute tags for some of the work.
Brad made all sorts of sauce for chips Salsa, French onion, Chili con Queso. And I made Balsamic Vinegar and Basil Chocolate Gluten Free cupcakes and Grapefruit, Apricot and Walnut Scones. Everyone enjoyed all of the treats and we enjoyed the easy cleanup and breakdown.
