Hey Old Cityzens!

I hope everyone had great weekend and stayed cool and dry. Already feeling like summer with the humidity and thunderstorms. Speaking of rain.. did you know that the only way that bees can fly in the rain is with their yellow jackets?


*rimshot!*


Culture and Cocktails

Thanks to every that made it out to the National Gallery of Art for our first ever ‘Culture and Cocktails’ event, or who followed along in the Instagram stories. We learned a lot about “The Thinker”, one of only a few female painters represented in the NGA, Saint Bernards, Georgia O’Keeffe trivia, what a poor artist keeps in their cupboard, Vermeer.. and more! We even had a few gallery visitors listen in on the presentations – so you know it was good! Thanks again, and keep an eye/ear out for the announcement of our June event.
