the Wall and take home a piece of original art
Somewhat Off the Wall, a unique art exhibition and party from
which guests will take home original works of art, will be
held on Sunday, September 23, 2012 from 5-9pm,
760 Chapel St., New Haven, in the spectacular space that
is home to the Odonnell Company.
This year’s event features drawings, jewelry, paintings,
photography, stained glass, pottery, prints, sculpture, and printed textiles by 50 outstanding
artists who have each donated three pieces of their work.

a piece of original artwork to take home.

a premium ticket making only 100 premium tickets, at $100 each, available to the
