Are you excited about seeing this work in person? It really is unlike any other exhibit New Visions has displayed. Oh, plus on top of your usual delicious goodness, I made this tonight for everyone to enjoy tomorrow at the opening!

YUMMY TRIFLE. Please help me eat this

Also we're extending our opening hours from 6 until 10 pm! That's a whole extra hour to come and hang out, see some really cool innovative sculpture and decorator pieces, drink some wine, east some TRIFLE and have a great time! Bring your wallets because you'll find some great pieces for your home. Don't forget about our stocked store for that perfect gift.

Did I forget to mention our most recent addition to our store? Beautifully crafted jewelry piece by Christine Van Dyke Altmiller
