Fundraiser at Steve Jensen and Vincent Lipe’s Home for Tip Toland Video

The theme of "hats" made the cocktail party video project fundraiser at Steve & Vincent’s studio seem even MORE festive. In addition to the art-packed environment, hat-wearing members who paid to come also brought abundant, varied and delicious appetizers. Larry Halvorson and Dick Weiss "manned" the bar.

Around 70 paid guests raised about $3300, after expenses, to help fund the Living Treasures Project. Project leader, Ron Pascho, introduced Tip (our current video subject) as many in the audience had never met her. She graciously thanked them for supporting the project. Ron also invited attendees to MAIL in further contributions . . . and some did.

Our host, Steve Jensen

Besides high praise for the appetizer-making volunteers and a big thank you to Steve and Vince for letting us take over their space, we'd like to note appreciation for Larry Metcalf who really knows how to throw a party!
