Last Saturday, Redding Neighbors & Newcomers kicked off their member-recruitment months with a spectacular Art, Wine & Cheese event. Both members and non-members gathered at Bethel Art Junction where they were entertained by the sultry music of Kelly Mittleman, a local singer who can be heard at kellysings.net. The event was fully booked and attracted more than 35 guests who all enjoyed the local art and wonderful wine that was provided by Mike Miller's company Raise the Bar. "This was an amazing evening and kudos to Barbara Murphy and Meredith Miller for coordinating such an elegant and successful event" said Jennifer Carello, the club's newly appointed Webmaster.
