✨ November First Friday at Behn Gallery: A Season of Renewal

Friday, November 7 | 7:00–8:30 PM
Behn Gallery | Carmel Arts District

Join us for a special First Friday at Behn Gallery — an evening of art, music, and connection designed to celebrate creativity and community.

We’re thrilled to welcome back Abbie Thomas, the soulful singer-songwriter who first performed at our Backstage at Behn series. This time, Abbie returns for an intimate solo performance, filling the gallery once again with her signature sound and heartfelt storytelling.

This month’s gathering is made possible by our local sponsors from the Village of WestClay — Camille, hair artist and local cosmetics creator, and Kristin, president of IRL, the dating app helping people make real-life connections.

Together, they’re bringing extra warmth to the evening:

• 🎶 Live music by Abbie Thomas

• 🍸 Seasonally inspired specialty drinks crafted by Camille & Kristin

• 🎁 Gift bags for the first 10 RSVPs (featuring IRL + Camille goodies)

• 💫 Complimentary IRL bracelets (for singles) & Camille samples

• 🍪 Light snacks and treats for conversation and community

This First Friday also marks the launch of our Fall Art Refresh & Collector Event — a time for renewal and creative evolution at Behn Gallery. As our work increasingly focuses on custom and commissioned pieces, we’re opening space for new inspiration by releasing select existing works at special collector pricing.

This isn’t a clearance — it’s a season of transformation. Each piece represents a story that’s ready to find its home, making way for the next wave of imagination to unfold.

Come for the art, stay for the music, and be part of a night that reminds us all to Live Better Through Art.
