Clara's Angels, an American Red Cross volunteer group made up of local military wives, will host an Art Show and Wine Tasting event at the Pensacola Naval Air Station Officers' Club on Saturday, August 15.

"We are excited to be partnering with the local Red Cross for this year's event," said Karin Feagles, the event coordinator. "The Red Cross provides a valuable service to the military families in Northwest Florida and to the entire community when disaster strikes, " continued Feagles.

Artwork including photography, jewelry, ceramics, pottery, paintings and unique crafts from local artisans will be displayed and available for purchase.

A local beverage distributor, Southern Wine & Spirits, will have a variety of wines available for tasting and appetizers will be served during the evening.

The event will be held from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and is open to the public. Tickets can be purchased at www.YourRedCross.org or at the door.

Proceeds from this event will directly benefit the community through disaster relief services and emergency assistance to military families.
