Art, Friends & A Fabulous Night
A Contemporary Duo opening reception, Friday, May 2
What a night! The ArtCentre of Plano was glowing with creativity as we celebrated the opening of new exhibitions by painter Julie Shunick Brown and sculptor Michael Sutton. Guests filled the galleries, conversations sparked, and art took center stage. From bold brushstrokes to powerful forms, it was an evening of inspiration, laughter, and community.
Couldn’t make it? Don’t worry—the exhibition is open and waiting for you.
