Held the first Wednesday of the month at Via Matta, the event known as F.A.M.E. (Fashion, Art, Music, Enoteca) debuted a new, all-female art series called “Paint Pens in Purses” last week. Organizer Shayna Yasuhara (better known to some as painter and illustrator Shayna Shenanigans) brought together works by Nineta, Lichiban, Morgan Thomas, Heather McGrath, Illy L., and, of course, Shenanigans. There was unique couture, in the form of hand-painted shoes, from Kim Harris’s Allston fashion emporium LAB. DJ Miss Thing supplied cool tunes, spinning a mix that included Cure pop and James Brown funk, while Via Matta served up blackberry sage gimlets, arancini, and pizza. Veteran scenester Peter Wolf stopped by, too.
