Elegant Peacock Vernissage party thrills Grove
Artist Andrea Ruggeri claimed her peacock last night at the Peacock Vernissage at the Windisch-Hunt Gallery. The first peacock, named "Max" by Heather Bettner, creator of the Coconut Grove Peacock Tour, was unveiled last night to a large crowd of art lovers.
The large fiberglass birds will be painted by local artists and displayed all over the Grove this spring and summer.
