Bios:
Hassan Patterson Hassan attended SACI international art school in Florence, Italy. It was here that he was exposed to the art of photography and classic oil painting. After graduating college Hassan has been involved in many aspects of visual art from directing music videos and film set construction to production photography for NBC and the SyFy channel. Presently, Hassan works on a variety of projects that involve animation, graphic design, illustration, video production, photography and fine art.

Jamie Meagher moved to Melbourne in 1998 and has been in many public exhibitions and gallery showings through Brevard and Florida. He has commercial and private clients throughout the southeast.

Jennifer Bonset graduated in 2001 from the University of South Florida with a Bachelor's in Fine Art.
Media she uses includes: Oil, Acrylic, Watercolor, Pastels, Colored Pencil, Pen and Ink, Charcoal and Pencil and additionally photography.

Ed Volonnino has been carving tikis in Brevard since 1978. His contemporary tikis combine the original Polynesian style with new whimsical expressions creating a tiki that sets Ed apart from other tiki carvers. Ed's tikis have decorated hundreds of businesses and homes. He's been featured on national televison on the program PM Magazine and on the cover of recording artist Leon Russell's album Solid State. Most recently Ed was featured in a book of self-taught Florida artists titled Extraordinary Interpretations, by Gary Monroe of University Press.

Stephen Lomazzo is a professional illustrator who was born and raised in Melbourne.

John Sluder’s professional career began in early 2005 and has involved all facets of photography including commercial portraits, magazine covers and photo journalism. John has also developed a keen interest in the many technical aspects of photography such as high speed, time lapse, low light and even underwater projects. His goal has been to achieve maximum results using lighting and composition as opposed to using modern technologies in post processing such as Photoshop. John divides his time between Florida and New York City, as both a photographer and also a fine art printer.
Longtime local, Sooz Momofuku has been obsessed with art for as long as she can remember. Her influences are far too vast to list here, but include animation, comics, lingerie catalogues, fair ride art, tarot cards, cathedrals, all religious art, and pretty much every art movement from history. She devours images and consumes symbolism to the point of saturation, then squeezes that brain sponge onto her canvases.
The Straw Hat Barmen, based in Brevard County, are devoted to elevating the art and history of the cocktail through craft cocktails they create and serve at events, tastings and seminars.
