The mezzanine level at SanChez Bistro – come up and enjoy 18 large canvas photography pieces and three multimedia presentations on the TV!

While the restaurant very much appreciates your patronage, I’d like to remind folks that do NOT have to be “dining” at SanChez to appreciate the 13 artists on display. It’s a venue like any other ArtPrize venue – come in and experience!

Come on up to the second floor mezzanine level – and say hello! I plan to be at SanChez most of the evening (OK – there’s a couple little receptions I’d love to get over to briefly, if I can …) – but my exhibit surely is ready for your enjoyment!

From 5pm on – I will be upstairs with 18 canvases pieces and a large screen television generously on loan from Appletree Christian Learning Center. Three multimedia shows are running on the screen – West Michigan, wild birds and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore!

Here is a peek at Sleeping Bear (high-quality video – please be patient – but worth the wait!).
