Art Show A Beautiful Success - Oakcliff Sailing

03 Mar Art Show A Beautiful Success

Posted at 18:48h in News by Oakcliff Sailing

The skies cleared, the sun came out and the artwork sparkled at Oakcliff’s second annual Spring Art Show. The event is the brainchild of founder Betsy Lawrence who not only curated the show but also participated as an artist as well. This year’s theme was the Intersecting Circles of Oakcliff, Oyster Bay and the Olympics. Even the catering was all about circles and the letter “O”. James Muir of Artaux Catering presented a menu including: Omelets, Olympic blueberry pancakes, Octopus in a soba noodle salad, Orzo salad with feta, Olives and sun dried tomatoes, tiny circles of caviar on blinis, and finally a rum soaked mount Olympus cake. The Artists, who all donated some if not all of the proceeds to Oakcliff were the real stars of the show. Scroll down to see the artists with their work. All artists can be reached by sending a request to race@oakcliffsailing.org A big shout out to Sonja Drabin for being a charming hostess and to Andrea Watson for stepping up to be the official photographer. Her photographs can be seen here. Also thank you to Oakcliff staff who brought their “A-Game” in cleaning and polishing and giving tours of the facilities, including the soon to be constructed Sailors Bunkhouse. Finally to everyone who came and enjoyed and purchased and donated. Thank You!
