As avid supporters of our city's art scene, we're trying our damnedest to have some COLLECTIVE representation at every party possible [we also like to party]. One such event is coming very soon, and we're sorta tingling with excitement. The UMOCA Pop Gala is a yearly event for those looking to show support for the contemporary art hub of Utah, and we count ourselves among those folks. The delicious event will include an artisan dinner crafted by Blended Table and paired with a selection of fine wines from Vine Lore and Luna Vineyards, not to mention a signature cocktail provided by Five Wives Vodka [yes, please]. We'll also be jiggling to whatever DJ Tidy spins. Good news for you...there may be an open spot or two at a table near ours. What if you were to tell us you love us and we were to buy you a drink? That would be mutually beneficial. What if we were all to dance and shake together? That would be magical.

Start planning your outfit [semi-formal with a splash of neon...win] -- you're going to want to get in on the live and silent auction bidding, as prizes include center-court Jazz tickets, a vacation in Provence, a couples day spa, original artwork, and tickets to a myriad of concerts. Stay tuned...we'll let you know more next week about participating artists. In the mean time, best to get your tickets.
