Photo by Lori SaxAs if dining under the stars in the picturesque courtyard of the Sarasota Art Museum wasn't enough for attendees of SAM's En Plein Air Wine Dinner on April 26, they also left with a special gift: a plate hand-painted by the guest of honor, artist Molly Hatch.
About 75 people enjoyed the four-course meal, with each course paired with wines from Bordeaux, and celebrated Hatch's new installation, "Amalgam." The installation is a collection of uniquely designed plates that come together to form a brilliant piece spanning two floors of the museum as part of its Inside Out program.
Proceeds from the evening benefit the museum, which is dedicated to showcasing and celebrating new works of art in Sarasota.
