Flushing Town Hall
2019 Feb 25
I, Kathleen Anne (Thomas's wife) attended a free symphony concert at The Flushing Town Hall on February 15th. Special guest; world-class pianist "Paik" was the jewel in the crown.
Viewed in the art galleries a textile exhibit of beautiful Korean Bojagi Art with contemporary esthetic. ~Tradition Meets Modern Beauty~ by Wonju Seo. Definitely my highlight of the evening was this unique form of patchwork textiles & the creative process of blending the ancient skills into a present interpretation!!
Also on display in the corridor walls of the Town Hall; Red Envelopes created by local children in the Flushing community. This was a "celebration clothesline" featuring over 100 handmade, decorated red envelopes....a homage to the Chinese Lunar New Year.
I highly recommend this venue for a visit. The building is magnificint from a historical perspective, global arts community events theatre & Flushing Council on Cultural Arts affiliate.

I was amazed with this grocery venue from the moment I entered through the door. Deli salad beyond delicious & they will chop it up for you if requested. Bakery butterscotch & pistachio cupcakes are to die for. The staff are very accommodating. The store itself is clean, bright & organized for fast/easy shopping.
