Two Sides of a Coin's latest event, "Shopping and Schmoozing Holiday Style"
at Gilda's Club NYC was a huge success!
With 26 designers/vendors spread around the lovely townhouse exhibiting unique and creative items like handmade earmuffs crafted from cashmere and crystal,  handbags made from old blue jeans, or jewelry designed with natural stones, there was quite a wide variety of great gifts to choose from. A yummy cooking demonstration by new cookbook author Maria Liberati added spice to an already action packed and fun filled day!
Silent auction items like jeans signed by Melissa Etheridge, or theatre tickets to Jersey Boys brought in a nice chunk of change! We're thrilled to announce that over $8,000 was raised at this event! Thanks to all the designers and attendees for their support!

Spit It Out!

A play with music, written by Amy Coleman and Valerie Smaldone


Spit It Out! is a comical and endearing look at an unlikely friendship between two women that develops when their paths in life collide. Kara Angelo, a career driven successful television talk show host meets the down on her luck blues singer, Hanna Cohen.

On the outside these women would appear to have nothing in common. When explored further, they discover that couldn't be further from the truth. It's the story of the transformational power of friendship. Just finished a Summer '05 run in NYC..
