A recap : Open House - September 27, 2008

Scott Nance - our point person for all things on the site in Oak Cliff will be contributing as guest blogger on the La Reunion TX weblog. Look for info on clean-up days, the site in general. Welcome Scott!

On Saturday, September 27, La Reunion TX launched their inaugural fundraising campaign at their World Headquarters located at 2129 Farrington by hosting an Open House. Wow! What a beautiful event. A large and lively crowd filled the room to view enlargements of a few of the 68 architectural renderings collected during the international search for the building design for the residences and campus. Guests enjoyed music from keyboardist Neeki Bey, a delectable spread provided by Oak Cliff's newest restaurant sensation, Bolsa, and drinks provided by Dry Soda Co.

La Reunion was able to begin funding thanks to numerous donors who generously gave $2430. A particularly stunning way to help out is by purchasing the newly published book Make Space for Art containing all 68 architectural bids. This book is a feast for the eyes and was premiered at the Open House as part of the fundraising effort.

Please continue to help us raise the money needed to reach our next goal and kindly spread the word to you friends about this magnificent project!
