Katchen Studio to hold party
The annual Chanukah Party and Prime Time Artists’ exhibit will take place from noon to 5 p.m. Sunday at the Katchen Art Studio, 620 W. Grand Ave.
The open house will feature such Jewish specialty foods as potato latkes (pancakes) and lokshen kugel (noodle casserole), and paintings by Katchen’s students and guest artists.
“I am always amazed by the progress of my hardworking students and this year is no exception. We have a beautiful show,” Katchen said in a news release.
