PACE
Center for Girls By Chay D. Baxley
On Wednesday, September 22, 2010; the PACE Center for Girls held a thank you party for supporters of their recent fundraiser, “Love That Dress!”. The celebrations took place at John Marazzi’s Audi Jaguar Land Rover dealership in Fort My- ers off Tamiami Trail. The party was by invitation only, and the turnout was fabulous.
The guest list included some of the most prestigious business men and women in the community, local donors, and friends. The guests were doated on in appreciation of their philanthro- py by attendants serving an assortment of hors d’oeuvres and wine. Entertainment included a photomontage and video clips of the “Love That Dress!” event.
“Save That Dress!” Next Year’s “Love That Dress!” will take place August 31, 2011.
Thank You...
Melissa Simontis Director of Development

Likewise, when placing your pottery and smaller sculptural pieces in a display space; whether it be in a glass showcase, or on a table top, or in a series of art pedestals. You want to make sure that the placement of each piece doesn’t crowd, overshadow or distract from the other pieces.
If your art collection happens to be unique, or otherwise notable; it would be suggested that you have it appraised by a licensed appraiser, photo- graphed and documented, to support its value. This is vital in obtaining the right amount of insurance to protect your investment. Most local art gallery and frame-shop owners in Southwest Florida offer free consultation services for selection and placement of artwork in your home or office. They can be a great source of information when decorating your home with art. Whether you’re a serious art collector or someone who just enjoys art for fun, living with art in your home, truly adds to the art of living.
