Now that the warmer weather is here, your Live in Hartford authors feel like dancing.

Join us at the Wadsworth Atheneum's First Thursday Event, Phoenix Art After Hours, on Thursday May 7 from 5 - 8 p.m.

The event will feature Samba Brasil, voted "Best Latin Band" by Hartford Advocate readers.

A dance instructor will be on hand to get us moving.

I'm wearing a dress.

A little bird told me that we're trying to procure a birthday cake for the event, as there are at least five six people we know who have birthdays in May. I present them to you in date order:

• Jayashree
• Susan
• Breck
• Julie
• Joe
• EmGee

They also made cutie gravestone cupcakes for Halloween.


If you're having a birthday in May, let us know in the comments section. We want to celebrate you too!

If you can't make it, we wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY anyway!

For those unfamiliar with Art After Hours:

Phoenix Art After Hours provides a stimulating setting for mingling with friends after work. Sip a cocktail, enjoy music and other live performances, attend a gallery talk, and even see a classic movie or art film. The Wadsworth Atheneum is open until 8 p.m. the first Thursday each month.

It's super laid-back. I dig that.

Technical Details:

• Park at the Front Street Garage, off Prospect Street and behind the museum.
• $5 / Free for Phoenix Employees, Museum Members, and Corporate/Institutional Members.

See you there!
