BENEFIT EVENT
In Vino Veritas
Three years ago, Shetterly began painting realistic portraits of
influential American leaders, past and present, who have personally
inspired him. These "Americans Who Tell the Truth" are clear statements
of political and social change — and Shetterly’s masterful artistry
isn’t too shabby either. Join the artist tonight at Traffic
Zone for an evening of conversation, wine samplings, delicious food
from Toast Wine Bar, and a selection of work for sale from Traffic Zone resident artists — with all proceeds going to support this can’t-miss upcoming exhibition.
6-9pm, Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art, 250 3rd Avenue N, Minneapolis, $75
DINING
World Flavors Dinner Party
Not only will you get to sip fancy wines and nosh on gourmet samplings
such as Serrano-Wrapped Rainbow Trout with Asparagus, Warm
Cherry-Tomato Confit with Manchego cheese, and Yogurt Red Pepper Flan

bird’s-eye view of Downtown from Solera’s breezy second-floor patio,
