The St. John’s Office Grand Re-Opening was held on Wednesday, Sept. 21 from 5 – 7 p.m. in our beautiful new premises in St. John’s. More than 100 top clients attended – enjoying a classical guitarist, passed hors d’oeuvres, wines and a signature cocktail, with other refreshments available in the Gros Morne and Terra Nova rooms. A seafood station was presented in the Marconi room.
All the new artwork was up, and three of the four local artists – from Christina Parker Gallery in St. John’s – were present at the reception for the unveiling. John Green said a few words about each artist after Doug Skinner’s words of welcome and gratitude to our clients.
Clients also enjoyed guided tours of the office. Our lawyers were provided with notes to highlight the following features:
