If you're into art, that's all the better. One of the reasons we chose Zadok Gallery for this party is because of the transformation this neighborhood has undergone in recent years - not unlike JAB! You will have as much fun wandering around the gallery as you will connecting with your friends. Of course, we will treat you to a special selection of hors d'oeuvres {we chose them ourselves - just for you!}, a specialty drink and even a raffle! Most importantly: have you decided yet what you're going to wear? Cheers and Happy JABBING! ~Team JAB
