Il Chiostro Community
This year marked the 6th annual Il Chiostro art exhibit at the Broome Street Gallery in Soho, NYC - Sensual Italy! Along with the exhibit of the artists`s work, events included:
- Writers Reading, an evening of students from workshops of writing instructors Maureen Brady and Martha Hughes reading excerpts from their original manuscripts;
- Cabaret on Display, an evening of entertainment by some of New York`s most talented performers to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. (The performers - Helen Baldassare, Eric Comstock, Gerry Dieffenbach, Barbara Fasano, Steven Lutvak, Linda Mironti, Georga Osborne and Bobby Peaco)
- a fashion show of Frank Dandy, the new line of men`s underwear from Sweden modeled by the Team New York swim team
- A Kiss from A Broad, Linda Mironti`s latest cabaret show and finally our Artists` Reception on Saturday, March 19th.
Attendance was the greatest ever and 20% of the artwork was sold! A virtual tour of the full show is available online on our Sensual Italy! web page. To purchase any artwork, please contact the artist directly.
