Artists Dinner at Festival in Long Beach

One of our favorite traditions is the Artist Dinner associated with each D@8 exhibition.  We reserve an evening at each venue the exhibition is showing (when Jamie and I are present) to host a gathering of the remarkable artists who have work in the show.
Here are a few scenes from the dinner for An Exquisite Moment in Long Beach.  We invited a few honorary guests to join us.

Here's to strong women.....
