Cocktail Art - 2016 Harbour Centre - Dinner Table Landscapes, Craft Cocktails, Gourmet Canapes -Great Event - Great Cause

Presented by Social Concierge, Cosentino Group and Kabuni, in partnership with IDS West, this gorgeous event is one of three that supports VCAD Interior Design students, as well as a community of guests wanting to learn more about fabulous table/room décor, delicious canapes, crafted cocktails and opportunities to meet designers, chefs, mixologists, artists - all involved with creating the most beautiful tables, room décor, lighting, and perfect entertaining. More details at Dinner by Design.



Greeted with a game of Truth or Dare, we played and posted while sampling reds and whites and a variety of custom cocktails. Very tasty, endless trays of canapes, were to be found all around the two floors of this venue. Platters were also circulated throughout the evening.

What intrigued me were the wall coverings, origami like, intricate and cushioning the room. Multilayered colors, collage like, also seemed to envelope the table, with a three dimensional wall of art. No need for windows. It was like being in a jewel box. Lots of black and gold and themes inspired by nature. My favorite was the Alice in Wonderland table landscape (KALU Interiors) a great conversation starter, "Have you read the book, seen the movie, looked at the illustrations..."

A lot of people, a fashion feast, a wall of sound, an infinite range of possibilities for the home, the table, an atmosphere of excitement, lots of oohs and ahhhhs, and many new invitations to dinner parties of your dreams.

Thanks to Cocktail Art and Good Life Vancouver, for the opportunity to enjoy this very entertaining event.
