OROC & Artworks Christmas Party


     OROC and Artwork's co-hosted Christmas Party was a huge success. There were plenty of wonderful appetizers and beverages provided by members of OROC and artists from the gallery. Several hundred dollars of new, unwrapped toys were donated to the Marines' Toys-for-Tots program (Noah delivered these the following morning). Talis Jayme and Noah Moseley welcomed everyone to this joint Christmas Party. Arlene Carr and Michael Bennett spoke about OROC's  donations of ten (10) winter jackets to local area kids and OROC presented $300 to the local Boys & Girls Club. Special thanks to everyone who brought toys, food, drinks and to Christie Taylor for being an exceptional bartender and to Pat McCann who played Christmas music for us throughout the evening. Merry Christmas to you all!

Artworks Studio & Gallery's Authors & Artists Night was on August 5, 2011, and it was a big success. Artworks hosted three local authors (George Willis Tate, William E. McClintic and Rita Essig). Mr. Tate recently published "Barkley House Vignettes", "People and Events of Old Pensacola" and "Twice a Princess". Mr. McClintic has three novels as well including "Kick A-- Resumes", Targeted Job Interviewing" and "Judas the Beloved Disciple Remembered". Mrs. Essig recently published her fictional novel, "May Day". Chris Saunders provided musical entertainment for the evening. Artworks had a big turn-out and it was good to see everyone out having a good time. We would like to thank all of you for joining us.
