Crazy but so good. Our Winey Mary is our Tomato & Jalepeno wine! It's great naked (straight up) but we also love it mixed with traditional Bloody Mary ingredients. So now available every is a self-service Bloody Mary bar with mixers, tomato juice, spices, celery, pickles olives etc. Also now available is Steve-A-Reno's Bloodshot all-in-one mixer! Made in Illinois, it's like Bloody Marys for Dummies. Just add ice!Wieners & Wine

Artist Reception 6-8 PM, then Film Presention 8-10 PM
Nina Paley is a filmmaker and artist. We are featuring her beautiful Art Quilts in our Hayloft Gallery. Meet the artist at the reception starting at 6 PM. Quilts on display through August.At 8 PM, there will be a showing of her award winning animated film, Sita Sings the Blues. Roger Ebert gave it two thumbs up in 2009. He wrote, "She begins with the story of Ramayana, which is known to every school child in India but not to me. It tells of a brave, noble woman who was made to suffer because of the foibles of an impetuous husband and his mother. Paley depicts this story with exuberant drawings in bright colors. It is about a prince named Rama who treated Sita unfairly, although she loved him and was faithful to him. There is more to it than that, involving a monkey army, a lustful king who occasionally grows 10 heads, synchronized birds, a chorus line of gurus, and a tap-dancing moon." The film uses humor to portray a serious storyline. Film length is 82 minutes. Recommend for 18 and older.
