Day 51
Over the weekend I attended a very posh party – an actual gala fundraiser for not only the Chesapeake Chamber Music Festival, but the program they fund called First Strings which is a music program for grade school kids where third graders get a chance to learn to play violin. Yes, violin, not guitar. Strings under fingers. I’m good with that. Great program, great party. I’m not a party planner, so I’m not really sure how the centerpieces matched the “Music of the Night” theme of the party, but they were quite colorful – vials of shiny candies topped with pompoms exploding with color. The room was very pretty with these things, and they were designed to be carried away – so I gathered up enough to create this frivolous guitar…just for fun.
