Dark Dreams with Hugo Crosthwaite

The Gallery members met at Noel-Baza Fine Art in Little Italy for a private event with artist Hugo Crosthwaite to celebrate Crosthwaite’s homecoming and get his take on artistic inspiration, next steps, favorite fish tacos, and what he loves (or hates) most about his rise to fame. 

Afterward everyone walked over to El Camino Super Cocina Mexicana, including Hugo!
