Every so often, the stars align and we throw a great event to celebrate our clients, and show our appreciation for their support in a special way. We’re so excited to tell you about such an event we hosted this past Sunday that we called the Art SoiRay! Three local artists set up camp at The Evening Star Cafe which ignited a stellar evening of art, wine, delicious food, and great conversation. It was a privilege to spend time with our clients in an environment outside of a real estate transaction.
Art and Community
We enjoyed introducing our clients to three of our favorite local artists. Not only did the artists help make this night special, but they add character and vibrancy to the community. The conversations inspired by the art were so interesting! Imagine all the conversations art can start in your house. Buying original art that speaks to you helps turn a house into a home. Beyond that, every purchase supports the community you know and love.
Ray keeping it lively as usual!
Such a great turnout!
We loved seeing everyone!
Did we mention there was a disco ball?? From left to right this is Vik, Mary, Angela, Ray, and Dan – see the whole team here!
Are you as impressed with these chandeliers as we were?
Seriously, aren’t they fun?!
Held at the Evening Star Cafe, our guests enjoyed a variety of delicious appetizers, these Shrimp Hushpuppies were our favorite!
Our bartender, Jenna, was an absolute delight and added much to the already wonderful ambiance.
A big thank you to all that attended, and especially to our honored guest artists; Jeff, Diana, and Brian! It was truly a magical evening because of all of you! If you couldn’t make this special event, we hope to see you at a future event. We love real estate because of our clients, and we genuinely like seeing you!
