Earlier last year we named the WayStation as our charity to receive a portion of sales at our 4th Hart Park Art Exhibit and Sale membership show, and we were pleased to write them a "nice" check after the show.  WAOW and WWS expressed a mutual desire to continue working together on an ongoing basis.

On August 18th, several representatives of WAOW attended a tour at the WayStation and a dinner hosted by WWS’s founder, Martine Colette, who lives on the property.  Lions roared and wolves howled as guests dined by candlelight beneath a glamorous tent filled with memorabilia of Martine’s time in Africa.

WWS’s annual “Safari Brunch” fundraiser is usually held in early October at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles. Last year, a WAOW member contributed an original painting for the fundraiser’s silent auction. The two organizations plan to continue working together, including a future paintout at WWS for WAOW members.  The property is currently closed to public tours due to zoning requirements; entrance is by private invitation only.
