Come Hang with Annelies Dykgraaf at the Art Center's new space at the Landing, downtown Jacksonville. The first event in the new gallery - come help TAC step forward and activate its vision! You will be able to see multiple original works of her woodcuts and a power point presentation of her life and artistic inspiration. While listening to the presentation you will enjoy home made dinner of Jellof Rice, pounded yam, various soups, baked chicken in red sauce, salad, fried plantain, with dessert of fresh fruit salad and French silk pie. Complimentary wine comes with dinner. 30 people attended and could not have pulled off this event without the help of my parents who did most of the cooking. And other friends helped: Pablo Rivera, Marsha Hatcher, Princess Rashid and Regan Heck.<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Spiritually, according to African legend, if you are attracted to <u>cowrie
shells</u> you could be family to an ocean spirit of wealth and earth. It also
represents Goddess protection which is very powerful and connected with the
strength of the ocean. Throughout Africa, and South and North America, the
cowrie symbolized the power of destiny and prosperity. Thought of as the mouth
of Orsisas, it also is believed to have taught stories of humility and respect.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
