Fun Photos!

Hi Everyone,
I thought you might be interested in seeing a couple photos from recent events.
The photo on the left is of the jazz band Southern Comfort who set up in front of the Dickson Gallery last week for our St Jude Pediatric AIDS benefit "Fine Art & Big Hearts".


The photo on lower left is me and Wendy...my best college bud who came down to Jackson for a visit from Indiana during our Janice Sumler Opening. Here we are standing out in front of the Dickson Gallery cracking up...like we always do.

See...you just never know what sort of fine art fun awaits you at the Dickson Gallery in downtown Jackson, TN.

Tonight...an open house for "Fabulous Friday" always held the last Friday of every month. This evening will be very casual social evening complete with live guitar and of course, fine art!
Happiness,
Rachel

It's was incredible!!! Fine Art, Live Jazz and a great cause...

Wow! What a night it was Friday, May 19th!! If you missed it...you must attend next year's "Fine Art & Big Hearts" event. We will be setting the date for next year's event very soon as we compile the results of this year's (the first year) fabulous evening of live jazz, fine art and benefiting St Jude's Pediatric AIDS program.
Special thanks to jazz band leader Bob Shuttleworth and his guys who played all night...OUTSTANDING LIVE JAZZ!! (thank you band members of Southern Comfort). Also a very special thanks to Creative Catering and the spectacular array of food. The adult beverage selection was great also!
Thanks Chris Nelson for assistance in getting this event started. Thank you again to all our event sponsors listed below. I was so very pleased to myself stand on the sidewalk in front of the Dickson Gallery and feel the joy of hearing live jazz on the street in downtown Jackson linked together with Fine Art and a great cause!
Also...a very special thanks to the assistance of Pat Patrick, Holly Couch, Janice Sumler and Dana Brooks for volunteering their time and efforts to making this event such a success.
Onward to even greater things hosted by the Dickson Gallery downtown.
Happiness,
Rachel
