- Up Top Studio Gallery held its first paint party, hosted by Devicia Burney, AKA Dee Exotic. On board were a professional male and female model, as Universal Soul Circle's fine artist, Terrell Kevyn Johnson, instructed the event. Not only did Devicia host the event, but she also used her Culinarian skills to provide a delicious meal for the participants. There was light music as Kevyn gave demonstrations and helped guide the participants through their painting. The atmosphere was laid-back, and everyone enjoyed their experience. Both the instructor and the host were given praise for giving a positive and enjoyable experience.
