smIMAG0048We had a lovely event last week at the Naughty Vine in Claremont on Opera House Sq. There were several wines available to sample, cheeses, and a nice variety of food and desserts. Special thanks to Robert and Nadia for their culinary contributions, and the Greater Claremont Chamber of Commerce for their donation of desserts for the event.

The crowd was enchanted with harper Angela Biggs, and they appreciated the sneak peek of the duo of Angela and Melissa Richmond on flute. There was a nice amount of art work on display, including works by Opus Arts Group members, the incredible local sculptor Ernest Montenegro and the gorgeous metal trees of Randy Adams.

Over $200 was raised for WCCMA’s community programs, and it was a nice way for friends of WCCMA to meet the friends of the Naughty Vine and other members of our community. We really want to thank the Naughty Vine for hosting this event, and for all of their generous donations. We hope to do this type of event again and with a nice new twist each time!
