PS

Dear collectors, if you interested in hosting a Michael Seewald art event at your home
please contact us. You’d invite some of your friends, and we’d invite some collectors
in your area to see your collection. It’s not necessary to own a lot of Seewald’s, it’s
just a function to meet and greet fellow collectors, like the one we had last week, below.

Chef Marian (whom catered the event) poses with
Valerie Seewald and San Francisco artist Tonya Zenin
at a private showing of the art collection of
Dr. Charles Cantor in Del Mar last week.

Dr. Cantor has added about 30 Seewald photographs to his
collection over the past 10 years, for both his home and his business.
(Tonya is an artist Dr. Cantor also collects, and now a Seewald collector too!)
