Twice a year Loan Thai's Earthbound Salon and Day Spa holds an Art Tasting event to celebrate and support local artists and artisans and benefit a local cause or charity. This month the Art Tasting, which benefitted the Big Buddies organization, was promoted by both the Wilmington Young Professional Group (founded by Jackie Willse) and the Port City Social Club (Sarah Barbee).
You won't see the usual networking event crowd shots in this post because I had a prior evening commitment, but I did show up while they were getting ready and took a few shots and grabbed video clips of Loan, Sarah, and Jackie.
Here's Loan Thai:
And some shots of an art show and networking event setup in progress:
Sarah Barbee:
Those are Sarah's hands cutting flowers to float in the foot tubs.
Jackie Willse not only heads up the Wilmington Young Professional Group, she also own's Port City Candles, some of which were also on display at the event.
With over 300 RVSP's I'm sure the Art Tasting was a huge success, I just wish I could have been there (I will be next time.)
