The works in this show, as well as smaller pieces by other artists, will be available for purchase. And a selection of chocolates and other delectable treats and refreshments, offered in return for a small, nominal donation, will add to the festive experience.

The event itself is free. All are invited to attend!

Join us on Feb 14, 6-9 pm! Bring the love in your life, or come alone and make new friends. Celebrate the ‘Power of Love!’ Defy the ‘Love of Power’!!!
