Acclaimed Denver restaurant critic Gabby Gourmet hosted one of her Gabby Dinners at Wyland’s Ocean Blue this past Wednesday in the Northfield Shopping Center. We had a lovely evening dining with Gabby and 30+ friends and guests, enjoying a flavorful four-course meal and wine pairing. Wyland’s elegant and playful atmosphere proved an ideal space for our intimate party.

You may remember that The Stasko Agency helped host the Wyland’s Ocean Blue Grand Opening back in November. Check out our blog post to see pictures from the event.

Did you happen to take a look at 9news.com today? If you did, you might have seen The Stasko Agency‘s Lu Stasko and Shelby Arnold kissing the cheek of renowned marine wildlife artist Wyland.

The Stasko Agency worked alongside PR colleague Tina Menditto to promote the Grand Opening of Wyland’s newest restaurant, Wyland’s Ocean Blue, at The Shops at Northfield Stapleton. Wyland himself was present at the VIP reception last night, which drew over 250 artists, media, fans and locals. Even the LinkedIn Rockstar, Mike O’Neil, was there to partake in the excitement.

Wyland’s breathtaking artwork is sought by millions of collectors, and his nationwide galleries are considered a must-see on the itineraries of travelers everywhere. You may be familiar with Wyland’s Whaling Wall mural project – an epic series of one hundred life-sized marine murals that spans twelve countries and four continents.

An upscale, fine dining restaurant and art gallery combined into one, Wyland’s Ocean Blue features sustainably caught seafood, farm-to-table meats, and coastal Pacific flavors with local and seasonal influences. A portion of the proceeds from each meal will go toward the Wyland Foundation and the Think Blue Foundation, both of which support conservation of the Earth’s precious waterways.
