Holiday Gala

Sue Moss and Craig Bell once again organized the Austin Chapter's Holiday Gala at the elegant Neill-Cochran House Museum.  The wonderful decorations always make the occasion so fun and festive.  Spoon & Co. once again catered our Gala.  Cellar Master Austan Librach selected the wines from the Chapter Cellar.   The event was black-tie optional.

The Neill-Cochran House is located at 2310 San Gabriel St. in central Austin.  Parking is available in the rear and on the street.
