New Year means New Art Exhibit @ Salado Wine Seller!

Americanography–Mixed Media

Join John Davis, contemporary artist from Salado, on Friday night, January 8th, 6-8 pm for his opening reception.  Mr. Davis’s art features common images and logos in a comedic, funky way.  He is clearly infuenced by popart and iconography while his works range from an arrangement of goofy cameras to fun collages that beg us to laugh at life.
 
If you cannot make it to the opening reception, be sure to come by and check out his intriguing artwork.  This will be an interesting mixed media show, and one that you will certainly enjoy while sipping a glass of Texas wine.  If you’re lucky, John might even stop by, recommend his favorite red wine, and explain what the heck his art means. 

 

Year End music celebration, December 31, 4-7 pm

Live Music!

Live Music!

I cannot believe it!  Where did 2009 evaporate to?  I wrote “2008” on a check just the other day!

Well, The Leisure Seekers suggested we have a New Year’s Eve live music celebration and you know I’m won’t say no to music, so come on down and join us.  4- 7 pm (so no one has to stay up until midnight).  We’ve got sparkling wine to sell you and I think some folks might bring some snacks to share.  Feel free to join in the fun!  I promise I won’t make you wear a stupid hat and no need to dress up, unless of course you would like to.

If you do want to stay up until midnight, consider dinner at Adelea’s or the Stagecoach Inn.  Both have New Year’s Eve package deals that follow our live music so looks like Salado is the place to celebrate 2010.  Happy New Year!
