Guests were able to view artwork displayed by the artists, bid in the silent and live auction and enjoy delectable wines. KC Daniel of United Country of the Treasure Coast spearheaded a successful live auction. Top items up for bid were a gourmet dinner for eight, with wine pairings, donated by Ian’s Tropical Grill, golf at the Floridian with legendary baseball player Phil Regan, and a half day cruise on yacht contributed by Sovereign Marine Group. A special auction was conducted to raise money to purchase a much-needed new van. Overall the event raised more than $75,000.

Enjoying the evening at the Meet & Greet event for the calendar artists were Kevin Hutchinson, Marian Vitale, Chris Kling, Cristina de la Vega, Carol Baehren Landeweer, Dan Mackin, Sue Ann Mosley-Saleeby, Val Lally, Karen Leffel-Massengill, Julia Kelly, Robin Lee Makowski, Mimi McCallum and Pam Patterson.

“My heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed, in some way, towards Pinot & Picasso. Thank you to our hosts, our sponsors, our guests, and every business and volunteer who helped both monetarily and with in-kind contributions. We could not have done it without all of you!” Suzy Hutcheson, CEO of Helping People Succeed.
