The Contemporary Museum held its second annual “August Moon” wine and food event at the Edge Bar at the Sheraton Waikiki last weekend.
Described as “an evening of wine, good times and some unexpected art,” the party featured some of Honolulu’s top artists donating the proceeds from their works to TCM’s Children’s Art Education programs. “Drawn Out” invited local artists to draw simultaneously during the evening, with the finished pieces put on sale for anywhere between $25 and $100.
In addition, more than 25 different wines were available for tasting; food offerings included dishes from Azure, the Beachhouse, Kai Market and Kauai Grill.
