The Willows Modern Art Gallery is hosting a

special event honoring local artist, Ken Carson.

                Mr. Carson’s black and white photography is very

                     familiar to the Willows’ community, and their local

        celebrity is also revered as the world’s most important

    fashion and celebrity photographer.

   Tonight, Ken has asked his favorite “subject” model Barbie, as his date to this special event. Dressed

    especially for the “Black & White” party in his

honor, Ken chooses a black wool suit and

black accessories. In contrast, Barbie

   choose a dramatic white fashion

with white accessories.

Barbie senses Ken is really nervous as they make

    their entrance together into the gallery. She knows

         he’s not comfortable being the center of attention,

     like she usually is, as a famous fashion model. As

        they make their way across the art space, the gallery

     patrons greet  them with a thunderous round of applause.

  Barbie gives Ken’s hand a tight squeeze. She knows it’s

                                            going to be a “picture-perfect” evening!
