Grape Girls in the Studio! Studio Clout that is:)

Hey Ya'll

A fantastic time was had by all on Feb 27th!! We gathered at Studio Clout in Castleberry Hill, for Kyla's birthday party fundraiser. This event supported M.E.N.S Wear Inc, (www.menswearinc.org), a wardrobe and work program. What a incredible group of MEN who are anxious to give back to the community. The mission of M.E.N.S Wear Inc is to provide a multitude of lifeskills, economic and entrepreneurship assistance to at-risk men and male youth of Metropolitan Atlanta.I was encouraged by their candid conversation and the exceptional suits they were wearing. "Every girl crazy 'bout a smart dressed man"---hehehehehehe!

Studio Clout, now here is a great spot.! Any folks who are looking for a cozy, inviting, private space full of exposed beam and brick--Eureka-----you have found it! Not to mention, John and Linda Lima, the principals--were a true delight!! They made us feel very welcome in their studio, wow--simply exceptional! Visit www.studioclout.com and check out an upcoming art or dance class.

Even though the Grape Girls are made of sugar...(hahaaha) amazingly we did not melt in the rain. Further it did not prevent us from enjoying ourselves with a multitude of wines--white and red-straight outta Napa!---imported cheeses, fresh strawberries and delicious cupcakes from Fran Jackson's own- FranTastic Cakes.(www.frantasticcakes.com) The event was a great change from simply going to dinner for a birthday--the wine tasting element added sophistication-I know it made me feel like a realllll GROWN-UP:)

After we finished the tasting, we were given a special treat. World renowned artist Gilbert Young, he gave us a private showing of one of his recently completed pieces...Breathtaking!

We had a blast!! and if you missed it--Soooo Sorry--

Cheers to You,

Gerri
