After meeting in the lobby of the Garden Room, the 6-7pm session will provide a New Neighbor orientation, reception and tour of Garden Room spaces including the glass rooftop greenhouse and new restaurant Tochi. Guests will have the opportunity to join the artist reception for Slava Yanovsky at the Garden Room.

About the artist: Slava Yanovsky, a Shorewood resident since 1980, created a large folk art piece for the Shorewood Public Library as a counter-point to the technology present in a modern library. Yanovsky was originally trained as a printmaker then began experimenting with cutting zinc and copper etching plates into weather vanes. Today, he approaches folk art in his own creative way with boldly-carved wood whirligigs and other whimsical objects.
