Mertiage Wine Bar in Glen Cove was transformed into a painter’s paradise on Sunday, Jan. 27 for a paint night fundraiser benefitting Harbor Child Care Center. Participants were supplied with multicolored paints, brushes and a blank canvas to create a landscape portrait with the help of instructor Darya Gauthier.

Guests enjoyed lively conversation and unlimited beverages while creating their masterpieces. All proceeds from the event will be donated to Harbor’s playground fund.
