The Grand Opening of the Corner Store Gallery was a HUGE success!  Friday night was a little chilly but thankfully the rain stayed away just long enough to save the people spilling onto the street.  I'd like to thank the sponsors once again for supplying the wine, Emma from the Union Bank Wine Bar was an enormous help setting us up with the vineyards. James Manners and Nick Bacon from Well Mannered Wines supplied the beautiful Pinot Grigio and the Cabernet Merlot, and Ben Crossing from Angullong Wines supplied the delicious sparkling.

I want to thank all of you for coming and showing your support for Nicole and the gallery.  I have no doubt we will see you again.
