Art Walk will be held on historic Flagler Avenue in New Smyrna Beach from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday, June 26. Attendees can take an enjoyable stroll along the avenue while enjoying the wide variety of art works featured inside galleries, as well as by several visiting artists under canopies, and may also participate in a “Wine Tasting.”
The wine tasting portion of Art Walk runs from 1 to 6 p.m. and offers a progressive wine tasting along the avenue where participants can taste their choice from more than 40 showcased wines. Wine tasting passports can be purchased for $20 at the tent at the northeast corner of Flagler Avenue and Cooper Street. The passport will include 20 tasting tickets and a keepsake glass allowing attendees to select the wines they would like to sample in exchange for their tickets. Some locations feature both one-ticket and multi-ticket wines to sample. A “Wine Tasting” flyer will list host locations in geographic order between the river to the ocean and what wines they are featuring. For those who want to share their 20 tasting tickets with a friend, an additional wine glass will be available for $5.
Start at the ocean or the river or anywhere in-between. From the river heading east to the ocean, the locations are: 100 block, Ta Da Gallery; 300 block, That’s Amore, Atlantis Bistro, Gyftz, Manzano Fine Foods, Galleria di Vetro, Om Bar & Chill Lounge; 400 block, Flagler Tavern, and Peanut’s Restaurant Sport’s Bar and around the corner at 309 Buenos Aires at Toni & Joes. Hold onto your passport and present it at participating eateries for dinner specials that evening.
A silent auction for four 8-foot long decorative surfboards will be held outside of Ta Da Gallery. The artistically painted “boards” feature the artwork of Stephanie Hill, Kathy Mills, Tray Holloway and Paulette. Ta Da, one of the wine tasting stations, will also be serving cheese, crackers and Gullah Gourmet Shrimp Dip and Lazy Afternoon Crab Dip on the front porch.
Art Walk features painting, jewelry, ceramics, glass blowing, sculpture, fabric arts and more. There will be entertainment and a special “punch card” prize drawing presented by the Gallery Group of Flagler Avenue. The Wine Tasting flyer includes the Art Walk prize drawing punch card, so pick one up and get it punched at each of the sponsoring galleries for a chance to win the monthly prize.

NSB Kiwanis “Strike it rich party”
Posted on June 2nd, 2010
The Kiwinas Club of New Smyrna Beach hosted their semi-annual “Strike It Rich” party on May 22st at the Brannon Center in New Smyrna. They sell 400 tickets to this event for a charge of $125 which admits two people. With over $18,000 in prize money, there is also food, dancing, open bar, and open buffet. The event, which is scheduled from 6pm until 10pm, lasted longer than planned due to the fun and dancing and actually ended around 10:40. The Kiwinas netted approximately $11,000, all of which will be dispersed back to the community. So far this year the organization has given over $10,000 to teachers for special projects that are not funded by the state. Without the help of the Kiwinas, the teachers would have to provide funds for these projects out of their own pockets. The Kiwinas also contribute to community organizations such as PAL and the YMCA. Kiwanis motto is “Serving the Children of the World” and the NSB club’s focus is “Serving the Children of Southeast Volusia County”. If anyone is interested in becoming a member they can contact Pat Reid at 386-409-9300 or by email at preid@federaltrust.com. They can also visit their website at www.nsbkiwanis.com.
