HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY

There are two holidays that relate to everyone, regardless of their personal differences. One of them is Father’s Day, which is celebrated on the third Sunday in June, that will fall on June 16, this year. And Mother’s Day, falling on Sunday, May 12, this year.

There is a very interesting modern history behind both holidays; however, honoring parents goes back to Ancient Greece and Rome. More precisely, it goes back to the Commandments in the Bible, where “Honor thy Father and Mother” is mentioned twice. No doubt that the Hallmark Corporation is responsible for the popularity of both celebrations in our times.

However, this year, you have an incredible opportunity to celebrate Mother’s Day in the Pop-Up Market, which will take place in the wine bar “Grape in the Fog”. Please follow this link for details. There you will meet a group of very talented female artists and will have the opportunity to try some sweet and savory bites, and of course taste some wine. I found out about this event from one of my clients, Beth, who is the owner of the bar. She asked me if I would like to bring some of my photo-books as potential gifts for mothers. You can see book covers here. You can also order them on Amazon.

Enjoy and Share!
