A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our special Taste of Italy event celebrating contemporary Italian fashion through the beautiful work of Velvet Phoebè.
It was a wonderful evening of creativity, sustainability, music, and community.
Special thanks to Angela Pavese and Cinzia Paolini, to organizer Botlhale Tshoagong, to presenters Thalia Makhlouf and Dr. Una Ryan, and to soprano Cheryl Cain with the talented string quartet: Michael Long, Michelle Maruyama, Marcel Gemperle, and Robert Howard, for making the evening truly unforgettable.
Velvet Phoebè pieces remain available to view and purchase at the Museo through Thursday, February 12, stop by and take another look!
Grazie di cuore for being part of our community and celebrating Italian creativity with us. 🇮🇹
