OCSFA Wine & Art Fundraiser
Saturday, August 2, 2008
The Oak Cliff Society of Fine Arts held its annual Wine & Art Fundraiser on Saturday, August 2nd at Turner House. The theme was Texas Art & Texas Wine. Attendees enjoyed a variety of wines from Texas vineyards courtesy of Times 10 Cellars, heavy hors d'oeuvres, and live music from a string quartet. This year, our supporters had a very rare opportunity to view paintings by Dallas Artists of the 1930s-40s, with a special focus on the works of Early Texas Artist and Teacher Florence McClung. The paintings were on loan from prominent area art collections, and some had not been seen in public for many years. Most of the art was shown courtesy of members of the Texas Art Collectors Organization. In a Pre-Event Session, art gallery owner David Dike spoke about Florence McClung and her legacy with Special Guests Bill & Tony McClung, who shared memories of their grandmother.
Our evening of Texas Wine & Texas Art was simply wonderful! The OCSFA board of directors wishes to express our appreciation to everyone who helped to make it such a success. Our Sponsors, Donors, Volunteers and Attendees all came together to create an extraordinary cultural event and to further our mission of restoring Turner House, enriching our Community and supporting the Arts. Thank you one and all.
