A few weeks ago, we celebrated 75 years of service to Western New York with a birthday blowout at ARTISANworks. Almost 500 of our Landmark Society members and partners joined us for this momentous celebration. Besides the wonderful adapted space and artwork that surrounded us from all angles, guests enjoyed musical entertainment from Gap Mangione; a Silent Auction filled with art, dining packages, tours, and more; delicious food and beverage; and just plain old good company.
As part of our 2012 Annual Meeting, we also recognized the following individuals:
