The H2O Show Opening...

2010-03-01T12:10:00.002-05:00

Although the weather disrupted much of the area on Friday, SPAG forged ahead with the scheduled opening. Considering the snow and ice, attendance was great. There were munchies and wine aplenty and we were entertained by a fabulous youth musician - thank you Taylor. And thank you to all who braved the snow and ice to join us on this occasion. Feedback was very positive on our largest show yet. There will be viewing hours every Sunday (except for Easter Sunday) from 1:00 to 5:00 pm if you intend to stop by... in the meantime, we will post some images of both the event and the artwork very shortly.

One Week to Go
