“Last night’s Grand Opening was a lot of fun and extremely successful…we had way over 200 people attend,” notes Michele Blackmon, a real estate agent and manager of The Agency’s brand new offices in Venice/Marina Del Rey.
Guests mingled and mixed Wednesday evening, enjoying signature cocktails and small bites created by Georgie of Delish Life, a specialty catering organization. Georgie is originally from Australia, and she has over 14 years of catering and home-design experience.
In addition, representatives were on hand for A Sense of Home, a non-profit organization that benefits Los Angeles youth. A Sense of Home places foster children in a beautiful home setting after being discharged from their foster homes. The organization graciously welcome donations of furniture for the youths’ new homes – if interested in giving, please contact Michele Blackmon.
Noted portrait photographer Kwaku Alston was also in attendance, and a number of his iconic photographs were on sale, with 50% of benefits going to Venice Arts, a community-focused arts education resource.
Speaking of photos, there was even a Venice Paparazzi photo booth; so if you were in attendance, be sure to check back to see your snapshots!
The Agency looks forward to being a vibrant part of the Venice and Marina Del Rey communities. You can visit our new addresses are 310 W. Washington Boulevard.
“I would like to thank everyone who assisted with the event and all of the Agency agents who supported the Venice/Marina office by showing up and celebrating with us,” says Michele. “See you all soon.”
