VIE PRESENTS LE BON TON, THE 2023 DIGITAL GRAFFITI FESTIVAL AWARDS PARTY

Dearest Reader, the VIE Team thoroughly enjoyed celebrating the intersection between past and future along with the announcement of the winners of this year’s Digital Graffiti festival at Le Bon Ton, An Artistic Garden Affair in Alys Beach, Florida, on May 19, 2023. We donned our best Bridgerton-inspired frocks and partook in sips from Gulf Water Wines and Coastal Coffee Bar Co., savory and sweet treats from The Salty Butcher and On The Fly PCB, and the musical stylings of a string quartet and pianist by Top Hat Live, aka The Whistledowns.\

Grove Fisher of Fisher’s Flowers transformed the Gulf Green with her event design, and Rose & Co. added pops of color with their stunning florals. Thank you to all of our artists who turned the green into an al fresco gallery: Andy Saczynski, Lindsay Tobias, Julia Kate Mace San Juan, ADARO, Brendan Parker, and Sally Neal. A special thank you also goes to Marie Nguyen of Marie Leoni Jewelry & Gifts for styling the VIE Team with her stunning jewelry designs!

Alys Beach’s Digital Graffiti creates an immersive and interactive art projection experience that is entirely unique to the Digital Graffiti festival, named as one of the top “24 Unconventional Art Destinations Around the World” by National Geographic. The audience moves throughout the festival footprint, through the streets and pedestrian paths, pocket parks and amenity spaces, engaging with the art within the context of the town’s urbanism, within the shared community experience, and within a festival environment of food, drink, and music. Digital Graffiti in Alys Beach is an authentically unique art experience.
