ye' that have yet to attend an art nite

please read the following...

"I was so nervous about attending my first Art Nite, b/c I am not an artistic person and I did not know what I could possibly bring to contribute some insight to a crowd of aspiring creative people! But, within 5 minutes of my arrival I had met at least 6new people who were so warm and inviting, that I immediately felt excited about the evening....despite the fact that I decided to show up empty-handed! I just wanted to experience this unique event, and I am so glad that I did! I found out that art could be anything from a nice photograph, to a poem, or even a portrayal of a dream. I was introduced to new photograph manipulation tool that I never knew existed, and it will prove very helpful in creating my new daughter's scrapbook. I highly recommend Art Nite to anyone looking to meet friendly people and care to share snacks, spirits and laughs (many)!" ~Karen

thanks for braving an artnite karen, you d'best.

Melissa’s Show


Hello everyone our very own (and very special) Melissa has a solo photo exhibit at the Yorktowne Hotel. Her work is displayed in the dining section which I believe is the Off Center Grill. MMMmmmMm. We met on Saturday for a quaint little opening reception which was lovely and very fun. Melissa we are so very proud of you. Your photos are amazing, and all that hard work …it put smiles on all our faces.
For those of you that couldn’t make it (shame shame) we'll let it slide... this time because her stuff will be up for alllll of September. So there is still time!!! They have amazing food and drinks (shockingly affordable). By the way, its probably one of the more relaxing places to eat in York, PA. at least I thought so…oh and they have a patio!
