Issue #9 (25 February 2012)

Thanks to all of you who joined us for ArtCafé's first monthly Happy Hour! Over 40 guests gathered to enjoy wine, cheese, home-made muffins, focaccia, along with artist discussions and highlights from Cindy Sherman's opening at MoMA.

We listened to seven artists who spoke about their work currently on exhibit for toy stories. A special thanks to artistsNina Bentley, Janine Brown, Miggs Burroughs, Susan Malloy, Margaret Roleke, Larry Silver, and Tammy Winser, who all made Happy Hour a fun and most informative evening!
