They're.....Back! Mit Wine, Chocolate und Cheese!!!

Hello All!

Need I say more? I mean, what is there to say after "Wine, Cheese and Chocolate"? Oh. Oh, yes..."Please sir...I want some MORE"!!! And, then, "Let's Boogie down!" I'm pretty sure that Sue Palmer, "Queen of Boogie Woogie" can handle that one, and keep everyone on their feet "dancing the night away"!

Oh yes, folks. The Women's Museum of California really knows how to throw a party, especially when it comes to Wine, Chocolate and Cheese. And, let's not forget "Tripping the Light Fantastic" underneath the stars right here on our Spanish Village Art Center patio. Yay! Great summer fun and a perfect way to mingle with old friends and new acquaintances. It's the "Mostest" in mingling, and you surely don't want to miss it.

So, "...Surrey on down to a stone cold party", the 5th Annual to be exact, and spend a fantastic evening with us under the stars.

And, then there is the CHOCOLATE...WINE...CHEESE...CHOCOLATE...WINE... See y'all!

For more information and to reserve your place, contact the Women's Museum of California at (619) 233-7963, or log onto their website at:  www.WomensMuseumCA.org.

Spanish Village Art Center is located at 1770 Village Place, San Diego, California in Balboa Park between the Natural History Museum and the San Diego Zoo.

AGG Spring Show- "A Blown-out Success"

Hello All,

I hear from AGG (Art Glass Guild) member, Marci Stinton, that the AGG Spring Show on the patio was a veritable "flood" of glass lovers and collectors. She said that the customers were still pouring in as late as 5:00 p.m. with no sign of ebbing. I wasn't able to attend, but judging by the photos of the event, this year's glass guild sale was a huge success. Oh, excuse me...rather, a "Blown-out" success (and, yes, pun intended...you know, "glass...blowing").
 

Just take a look at these displays of some of the art glass that was exhibited at this year's event.

Oh, the beauty of glass...amazingly, just melted, fused, folded, slumped, and blown sand.  Sand, as in silica!  Now that's the kind of science I can relate to.  The science of the chemical makeup of Art Glass.  What a segue...from the chemistry of science to the miracle of Art Glass.  How absolutely, positively MARVELOUS!

There were over 30 participants in this year's AGG Spring Show and Patio Sale, 2012.  Here are just a few of those marvelous "miracle makers".

ANN MITCHELL, Art Glass

MARY JANE BAILEY, Dichroic Glass

MICHAEL HERMANN & GINA LUNN, "Nautilus"

SEE YOU AT THE FALL SHOW...It'll be MARVELOUS!!!
