A Great Exhibit & a Delicious Dinner at Limani Grill

Limani Grill hosted a lovely dinner tonight for our Board of Directors, who were at the restaurant to view our first art exhibit in Westfield’s wonderful seafood restaurant. Owner George Vastardis spent time mingling with board members and was extremely complimentary of the work and the strong reception it continues to receive from his many patrons.

a happy crowd

The 7-piece exhibit was sourced from a theme-specific call for art to all current WAA members, and was beautifully curated and hung by board members Maxine King and Ginny Puskar.

The exhibit at Limani is our second in a growing series of WAA pop-up galleries going up in downtown restaurants. These exhibits add the flavor of original art by gifted local artists to the already amazing flavors of Westfield’s many restaurants. Themed to complement the unique culinary efforts coming from each restaurant’s kitchen, the art shows local residents and visitors alike a bit of the vibrant culture of our community.

Michael & George

If you have yet to see our exhibit at Limani, please invite a friend to join you downtown. And don’t forget to tell George we said hi.
