Happy almost-Halloween folks! I say that because this past weekend, I was fortunate enough to celebrate early at Cirque Du Noir in Worcester, MA. My friend and co-worker, Michelle May, co-hosted this fabulous fundraiser with her friend, Andreea Waters, to help support the Worcester County Food Bank.

 Held at Bocado Tapas Wine Bar, the event showcased an abundance of creative spirit including a silent art auction, an art fusion, Zentangle zaniness and live music from Esthema!

Guests donned “creative black attire” as they munched on tasty Bocado delights, perused art, and mingled with artists. The Halloween atmosphere included a deliciously-dark candy buffet and hauntingly-beautiful floral arrangements, all created by local florist, Sprout.

One of the highlights of the evening was the live-art fusion, which featured a group of talented artists as they collaborated on a number of different canvases. Each canvas was assigned a theme and by the end of the evening, they were all auctioned off.

I was very happy to be apart of this wonderful event. I was lucky enough to contribute a piece of work to the art auction (shown at top of post). And although I do not know yet, whom the piece went to, or how much it went for, I hope that it made everybody involved happy! Be sure to check out the many photos on Flickr and learn more about the event here. It will be sure to get you in the Halloween spirit! Boo Ya!
