Taste of Wine, Art event set for Thursday 10/11/2009 7:51 PM Submitted article The ever popular Taste of Wine and Art at Aiken Center for the Arts is scheduled for Thursday.
Always a sellout, the evening features fine art from local artists, delectable cuisine from local restaurants and caterers plus the opportunity to sample sumptuous offerings of select wines and unique beers. Live music enhances this special¬ evening with friends and tickets are available for $50 at the center.
The event is a fundraiser for general operations of the Aiken Center for the Arts.
This year the Taste of Wine & Art fundraiser will be a top 10, and the artwork created for the print material used by the event is also a top 10.
After a trip to France visiting museums and galleries, Kimberly Guillermo returned to Aiken inspired.
She used that inspiration to paint an acrylic painting that represents the theme and excitement of the Taste of Wine and Art event.
An image of the painting has been used for the invitations and posters.
Guillermo has generously donated the painting to be in the benefit's silent auction. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in bidding for original art and gifts, mountain, lake and beach vacations, dinner and cocktail parties and all-inclusive golf packages.
The Aiken Standard, Bridgestone, AT&T and The Real Yellow Pages are proud to sponsor this event.
Tickets for the event are $50 and can be purchased in advance at the Aiken Center for the Arts, 122 Laurens St. S.W., or at the door on the evening of the event. Dress is business casual.
