More about the event

This event will certainly have some of the usual accouterments featuring appetizers, bourbon (a Studio 221 staple) and other beverages, giveaways, music and great conversation.

But here's where it gets unique.

We've all been to art fairs or gallery shows and have seen kick-ass pictures as part of the show, but how many times have you been to a show where YOU are the kick-ass picture on the wall?

In a time when social media and world-wide events have pushed us farther apart than ever before, this is an opportunity to come back together and immerse yourself in the steeped narrative of your city-wide neighbors, not only learning about their legacy, but also becoming part of that narrative as a result. A collection of stories and histories that are unique and, on this night, part of a collective whole that celebrates the gravity of this human experience.
