Guide Dogs for Art



The opening party for the "Insights 2007" art show...



...was held last Thursday evening in City Hall's basement.



The nationally juried show of "visually impaired or blind" artists is sponsored by the Lighthouse for the Blind next door on Van Ness and Grove (click here for their site).



There were lovely hors d'oeuvres being passed around to wealthy donors...



...and anybody else who was hungry.



It was fun watching artists such as Lois Ann Burnett (above)...



...posing with their work...



...and checking out the coolest collection of guide dogs ever seen at an art show.

In the third pic from the bottom, a gray haired lady, just over the shoulder of the main subject, pays honor to the blind by viewing their art with the same skepticism (jutted jaw) she affords all modern art.

Very nice, Michael.
