Believe in Bristol Art Gallery open house

Last night I left the warmth and comfort of my PJ's and fireplace and met up with my girl friend Cathy Armstrong, Broke/Owner at Heritage Homes Bristol, in downtown Bristol Tennessee, for their annual Gallery hop. She didn't have to twist my arm too hard! I had read about this Gallery event a few nights before and was excited about getting out to downtown Bristol and enjoying some great art and people.Seven galleries opened their doors from 6-9pm and offered up wine and appetizers.

I discovered several galleries I had never been in before and a fabulous photographer with his own studio in Downtown Bristol. Benjamin Walls is a young, established photographer with his works featured in 7 fine art galleries and exhibits in 50 museums in 12 countries. His work is fantastic!

I also met up with CS Thompson, author of a mystery series that takes place in our neck of the woods. he was a delight, and came over to our table and read excerpts out of his newest book, Why Me.

It was a delightful night, and I did eventually end up back on my couch, in my PJ's, in front of my fire. Only now, I had a great book to read and lot's of art to think about!

Thank you Downtown Bristol Tennessee, for a great night out with my good buddy Cathy Armstrong, Heritage Homes Bristol Tennessee
