Zaruba & Zaruba is proud to announce the celebration of the 6th Annual Art of the Martini. This unique art show is a celebration in interpretation and individuality, beginning with the concept of the iconic "Martini". The show would not be complete without the annual gallery event to kick off the Winter Holiday season. Last year's event was sponsored by ABsolut Vodka and raised funds to support the Make-A-Wish Foundation. A catalog of the show, produced by Zaruba & Zaruba, will be available.

Artists are chosen by Master Goldsmith, Andrew Zaruba. Consideration is given only to those who are innovative in their concepts and show excellence in their craft and execution. www.zarubajewelry.com/index.html
