Nothing pairs better with cocktails than art.
FLOH Vodka founder and CEO Jacques D Evans (@SteadyFloh) collaborated with the museum of contemporary art Cleveland and several talented artists for a 2-day art experience.
Accompanying the Heart of the Cocktail Art Experience was special guest photographer and Roc Nation SVP, Lenny “Lenny S” Santiago. Lenny S surprised all his guests with his infamous gold couch. Attendees were able to take photos on the chair and take a look at his golden wall that feature some images of intimate celebrity moments captured by the god himself.
Additional guests included avid collector and founder of ART X, Everette Taylor, who recently was named one of the “100 Most Influential African-Americans” by The Root and Forbes 30 Under 30.
