Don't forget to make your reservations for the Cirque du Spring Gala and Art Auction on May 6th. Co-chairs Kate Dalba and Joan Plunkett promise us a glittering evening of fine art, gourmet food provided by A Peach of a Party and delightful entertainment. Anne Tracht, Art Curator with ConsultART Inc., is gathering 100 pieces of canvas art, photography and sculpture from talented local artists. ArtSS will honor Jim Schell, a noted 92-year old Sandy Springs portrait artist, with displays of his art. Dazzling surprise 'pop-ups' from rock to grand opera will charm the party, while gifted pianist, David Carnes, plays party favorites throughout the evening. One "surprise": Cecil Welch, former lead trumpeter for the Henry Mancini Orchestra. Click for more information about Gala ticketsor call 770-951-0021.
