Fall Gallery Night 2011

We started out at the Grohmann Museum at MSOE for a great photographic exhibit of trains from the 40s through 70s. Entrance was free for Gallery night and they serve great appetizers-wine was $4, so we skipped it. :)


Then on to the condos at 1st place on the river, across the bridge into the 3rd Ward. Our dentist is in the building and had some photos, glass work and free appetizers, 'natch. :) An 11th floor condo was open-spectacular views of downtown and free champagne. Met up with some friends at Tulip, the Turkish restaurant. We had a Groupon, so had a bottle of wine and appetizers. Then went to Walker's Point Center for the arts. A phenomenal Day of the dead exhibit. Here's a picture of a Marilyn Monroe wannabe.


Next was Humboldt Park to see their pumpkin carving display-a huge number of pumpkins. They also had a band playing some sort of rock, folk art.
Got a little chilly so heade to Thief Wine in the public market-we had a gift certificate so had a carafe of wine.


Last stop was the pfister, where Shelby Keefe, the artist in residence, was painting. It was nearing 11pm by now, so took a quick walk around the 2nd floor of the Pfister looking at old pictures and artifacts before heading back to Brewer's Hill.
