| Part of the crowd at the Woman's Art Club opening, eagerly awaiting the awards ceremony. |
Sunday dawned gray, foggy, damp and cold (barely 40 deg.)! But, meeting friends for one of our local Sunday breakfasts was a treat - not to mention yummy sausage patties, country ham, and omelette to order - cooked by the gentlemen of our local conservation club. Yes, I said gentlemen! That's actually one of the reasons I like to go - to watch the guys flip the omelettes up in the air and catch them in the pan - they are pretty good at it!
Anyway - following breakfast - with a surprise appearance from one of our other friends - I bundled up and read through art mags until it was time to leave for the Woman's Art Club opening. I barely noticed that it was getting brighter outside, but when I went upstairs to change clothes I noticed how sunny it was getting - and how warm!
Turned out to be a beautiful day - sunny and warm (75 deg) after beginning with that awful start - as though April 1 really was saying "April Fool's, you thought it was going to be a yukky day but . . . GOTCHA!"
So . . . it also turned out to be a great day for an art opening! The Woman's Art Club of Cincinnati show opened from 1-4 (see my sidebar for more info) and I, along with many others, attended the opening.
I had just stepped inside the door when a cohort from the Cincinnati Art Club grabbed me for a chat; then on my way to the ladies room (my first stop on any formal occasion!!!) I was stopped again by another friend, her husband, and my good friend Rhonda and her husband Jerry Carpenter!
I finally got a chance to walk around and take a few photos before I left.

Deb, the show looks wonderful and the venue is beautiful.
Everything is so well hung and shows so beautifully. Really lovely. Your Geishas look great on the wall. Sounds like a wonderful way to spend the day.
Congratulations on getting into the show!
De très belles salles pour cette magnifique exposition. Vous aviez exposé une très belle oeuvre.
gros bisous à vous.
Christiane, thank you - it is an old barn that has been refurbished and they did a great job.
Nancy, thanks - I did get some compliments on the painting - which made my day!
Gaylynn, hope you get a chance to see the show - I miss seeing you!
Martine said: Beautiful rooms for this magnificent exhibition. You had a very beautiful work presentation - Thank you, it's a great space.
We just got back in town and I'm still trying adjust to the cooler weather...though it's been warmer this year than usual. Looks like it was a great opening. Wish I'd been there. I hope to get more involved this year with either CAC or WAC. I've not been to the new WAC center yet.
