Charles F. Lucas Confectionery & Wine bar hosting 'Anti-Super Bowl Art Party'


Friday, February 1, 2013
TROY — If you are upset none of the New York football teams are in Super Bowl 47, or you don’t care for either of the teams, or you simply couldn’t care less about football at all, then the Charles F. Lucas Confectionery & Wine Bar on Second Street has an alternative.

The “Anti-Super Bowl Party” will be held at the wine bar where people can enjoy not only wine, cheese and beer but also a half-time art show.

According to a press release, the party will feature metal sculptures made out of found materials and created by metal sculptor Michelle M. Vara, of the Ballard Road Art Studio Gallery in Wilton.

On display will be Laissez-fair #344, aptly-nicknamed “Couch Potato,” as it is a piece made out of parts from a tiny television.

Co-owners Vic Christopher and his wife Heather La Vine had both worked in the sports industry — they were with the Tri-City Valley Cats until they were fired because of their relationship — but he said he now realizes sports aren’t all that important.

“I worked in professional sports for a decade. It took me that long to realize that a game has no direct impact on my life,” Christopher said in the release. “Wine and Cheese get me more excited than watching some guy throw a ball around the grass.”

But the real purpose of the party, at least for La Vine, is to get away from the television screen and interact with human beings.

It also helps the bar doesn’t have a television in sight.

“We spend too much time looking at a screen and not enough time looking at each other,” La Vine said in the release. “At the Confectionery we encourage conversation between friends old and new.”

The event will run from noon till 9 p.m. on Sunday.

Andrew Beam may also be reached at 270-1294.
