On March 8, the 2018 GFAA Award Ceremony After Party, the first YV event , provided an intimate opportunity to meet and mingle with our art-stars, and included open bar, light bites and a DJ with dancing throughout the evening. The YV event venue was the (very private and exclusive) National Arts Club’s entire ground floor space- which features a billiard room, two art galleries and another area for dancing. The event was organized by our YV Committee, chaired by Remi Koukou, Events Coordinator at the National Arts Club.
