Mahjong was the theme at last Saturday's Second Saturday party.  Over 120 guests enjoyed looking at the Chinese Contemporary Photography exhibition in the galleries, eating dumplings from the Rickshaw Dumpling truck, drinking wine and beer, and playing mahjong.

 

Thanks to our generous sponsors for making Second Saturdays possible: American Express, Bedford Magazine, Captain Lawrence Brewing Company, Mt. Kisco Wines & Spirits, and Greenwich Orchids in Bedford Hills.
