Blue Spiral Trip
On March 1, 2007 the Founders Circle and Apprentice Circle traveled to Asheville for the opening of Pursuing Excellence: Studio Craft Movement in Western North Carolina. The gallery sponsored a special early opening for our group where we viewed the exhibit and met with the artists. After the opening, we had an excellent dinner together at Limones, one of Asheville's exciting new restaurants. |
