The Bronxville Women's Club, Inc.

There were seven regional Beaux Arts Competitions throughout Westchester this year.  The first place winners of each of these were eligible to compete at the Beaux Arts Finale at the Bronxville Women's Club.  The winners were announced at the reception on Sunday, July 24, from 2 pm to 5 pm.

There were over one hundred visitors at the reception.  Everyone enjoyed looking at the art work, chatting, and enjoying the food on the reception table provided by Bronxville's Gourmet-2-Go.  The solo cello music by Mike Lunapiena provided the perfect backdrop for a perfect afternoon.
