Martinis And Mistletoe
Shoppers had no trouble getting into the holiday spirit while they browsed the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft on Dec. 6 during Martinis and Mistletoe, a festive evening of holiday shopping.
Guests left their vehicles with the valet service as they walked the red carpet and had their photos snapped by The Voice-Tribune’s photographers. Inside, they sipped delicious special recipe martinis provided by Little Black Dress Vodka. The Museum Shop was trimmed in the style of the holiday season and filled with one-of-a-kind items created by over 300 Kentucky artisans.
While shopping, those attending enjoyed live music performed on the exhibited Wendell Castle Caligari piano and trunk shows featuring Cellar Door Chocolates; jewelry artists Amy Lemaire, Lauren Blackwell and Dawn Middleton; and silk scarves by textile artist Suzanne Spencer.
