Don't forget! This Friday night, from 6-9, stop by Leopold for an evening of great art, great company, and award-winning wine from Somerset Ridge Vineyard and Winery, one of the area’s oldest wineries. They're located near Paola but they ship their wine all over the country, and host 100s of guests at their tasting room each week. Please drop by to meet these rock stars of the wine world. https://www.leopoldgallery.com/
