Art, food and furniture

Friday Feb 23, 2007

It’s not too often that the place to be on a Thursday night is a furniture store, but this Thursday, it was – Voilà, French country inspired furniture shop on Washington Street played host to a party of South Enders, marking the start of an exhibition of paintings from artist Oana Lauric.

The party featured champagne courtesy of Perrier Joet and delicious hors d’oeuvres from Sage Restaurant, which though currently residing in the North End will be moving South, right into Caffe Umbra’s old space, in May.
