"Around the Punchbowl
at the Loft Party"

This work of art, painted by Penelope Grill, was included in the Experience Music Project's Disco exhibit. It is an oil painting on stretched canvas. All the characters were inspired by real Loft people.
The refreshment in the large bowl was a lightly sweetened citrus punch. Slices of orange and lemon floated on top.
The man in the Hawaiian shirt on the lower left is wearing an evil eye glass pendant. These were given out a gifts to everyone attending the party one evening. The party mascot, Wolfie, the cat, stretches out under the table.
If you attended the parties on Prince Street you may know who some of the people were.
