Our grand opening celebration of the gallery at taste and our new location at 17 Narragansett Avenue was fantastic. We kicked it off with a ribbon cutting ceremony with the Chamber of Commerce (big thanks) and welcomed clients, friends and artists throughout the evening. We had a full house, great food and wine by Grapes & Gourmet, a few speechless guests as they walked through the door and even a few tears by me when I attempted to thank my team for their endless efforts and support. Designers are allowed to be a bit emotional, right?
And…we’re doing it again this Thursday, 8/20 and next Thursday, 8/27 from 5pm – 8pm. So if you missed last Thursday evening, don’t worry. There are two more opportunities to celebrate with us and be inspired!
The official ribbon cutting alongside my dear friend, Debbie Swistak.
We love our storefront windows.

Big grins all around.

Hope to see you this Thursday or next at taste,
