Pati Braun and Carolyn Ann Steward: Opening Reception

Our friend Jack Rowell stopped by Korongo Friday evening and got these shots of the party for Pati and Carolyn. We met lots of new folks, including some from Gifford Hospital and Vermont Castings, a couple who had driven up from Bennington, and some very cute kids who came with their dad from Randolph Center. The show will be at Korongo till mid-April.

Pati Braun and Carolyn Ann Steward

Moonlit Birches, by Pati Braun, pen and ink, 14 by 20 inches framed
Spring comes to our corner of Merchants Row with an exhibition by Randolph artists Pati Braun and Carolyn Ann Steward—opening today (Friday, March 16) at 5 o'clock. Come on by, say hello to Pati and Carolyn, and put a red sticker on the wall. Then cross the street to Black Krim and have Sarah pour you an IPA while Emilie makes you some fish cakes or beef dumplings. Next, head down Main Street toward Chandler, where our friend Nancy MacDowell is singing with the Ground Hog Opry. Ten bucks gets you in; show begins at 7:30. (We'll be heading over to Chandler after the gallery closes, then to Black Krim for a late supper.) The reception for Pati and Carolyn is from 5 to 7 p.m. Their work is on view through April 22. Pati's exquisite greeting cards and Carolyn's lovely children's book are available here at the gallery; so is Nancy's new CD.
