Vendor Team

“Never have I attended something quite as cool as what was hosted this evening. It felt like a true neighborhood happening, which is a coup if you think about the location, the immediate past history, and the diversity of groups who came together to celebrate tonight. Real estate people and biotech folk were rubbing shoulders with artists, community activists, winemakers, tennis players and do-ers of every kind. The music was amazing.
