CHARLESTON, SC - July 13, 2012 - Corrigan Gallery is thrilled to have Barsa as its partner restaurant for the ever popular fundraiser - the Palette & Palate Stroll.  Tickets are still available - click here for CFADA.  We cannot wait to see what lovely tastes Cole and Drazen of Barsa (and Lana's fame) bring us!  Start at any of the member galleries and enjoy the tastes of Charleston.

The gallery presents "Contemporary Southern Women Artists - no shrimp boats, no palmettos, no marshes.  Lynne Riding, Daphne vom Baur, Mary Walker, Kristi Ryba, Lese Corrigan, Judy Cox, Sue Simons Wallace and Lolly Koon make up the stable of contemporary females in the gallery.  Although not all were raised in the South, they have certainly chosen it as their home and have been influenced at least by the sultry, perfumed air.  

And we do promise you sultry. It may be a bit cooler than the last weeks but we always promise hot weather to add to the ambience!  Stroll from gallery to gallery at your leisure, starting wherever you wish to see the latest works and sample foods from the wonderous local restaurants.  We will have cool refreshing drinks and lots of ice.

This ticketed event allows for scholarship money to be provide to local educators - the Gibbes Museum of Art, Redux Contemporary Art Center and The College of Charleston, School of the Arts, Studio Art scholarship.

Visit us again in October for Richard (Duke) Hagerty's show of new works entitled "Existential Jukebox."  November is new works by Lese Corrigan and December a solo show for John Moore's photographs.
