Dan's PIZZA ART SERIES, opening Sat May 9 in Red Hook Brooklyn




Hello Friends,

I would like to invite you to Red Hook, Brooklyn beginning this Saturday at 1PM for the opening of a 5 week art gallery exhibit titled, "The Color of Hope" by the Brooklyn Waterfront Artist's Coalition (BWAC - http://bwac.org). This is Brooklyn's largest art gallery. Free admission & complimentary hor d'oeuvres and cocktails to be served.

The show runs from Saturday May 9 - Sunday June 14 (weekends only) from 1PM - 6PM. There will be live music and entertainment on the 2nd floor and a silent art auction that concludes about 4PM with a final roll call on June 14.

I hope you are a pizza lover because when you walk through the 1st floor doors, I have a featured wall to the the right of the entrance themed, "The Art Of Pizza"! 9 pieces are on display that will tell you a story of how a perfect pizza pie is hand made, cooked and finally devoured. OK now I am hungry!

This gallery is located in an old warehouse down by the Red Hook Pier. This is an interesting space and an equally interesting area due to the amazing views from Red Hook's many piers. Look right and observe a very close-up view of the Statue of Liberty along with lower Manhattan. Look Left and see the Verrazano Bridge). Right outside the gallery sit 3 old trolley cars - these are the remains of what was left from attempts to put the trolley cars back on the streets a few years back.

I hope to see you there. The address is:

499 Van Brunt Street
Brooklyn, NY 11231
(all the way down to the Pier, Fairway's market on the right hand side)
