Night of Art


 Last night Pete and I went to an event I had been looking forward to for months -- and it was just as wonderful as I had anticipated!  The International Women's Club organized the Night of Art as a way to allow Moldovan artists to display their work in an elegant setting, while raising money for charity at the same time.  Plus there was live music, a huge buffet of food, and free wine and juice.  Win, win, win, win!
 Tania came to babysit -- and afterwards she was heading to an all-night prayer service.  Talk about feeling safe about leaving your kids in good hands!  So off we went, feeling very free and fancy.



The guitarist who was playing at the event was amazing -- and he was also a familiar face to us since we met him the first week we were in Moldova.  (He gave us some printers.)  We enjoyed getting to hear him perform -- very impressive.


 We spent the evening talking with several friends, walking around to look at all the artwork, and buying some handmade treasures.   And here's Pete, annoyed that I'm trying to take his picture.
 One of our favorite artists there was the one with the display below.  (valeriaduca.com)  She is only 16 years old and has already created so many beautiful things.
 Definitely a lovely evening!
