Jamboree at the James
The James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art in downtown St. Petersburg celebrated its one-year anniversary with a country
western dance and dinner party held in the museum. The Cadillac Cowboys played, while guests danced with their partners and
showed off their western wear. The museum on Central Avenue offers more than 400 works of art evoking the spirit of a wide-open
frontier and the beauty of life in the wild. For more information, call (727) 892-4200, or visit TheJamesMuseum.org.
