DANNY SIMMONS
DRAWS CROWDS TO SUGAR HILL ART CENTER

Lorenzo Pace was one of the many artists that showed up for Danny Simmons’ A Conversation, gala opening at Harlem’s Sugar Hill Art Center. It was, by far, the largest gathering to the newly opened galleries.                   Kwame Brathwaite photos
Harlem was the scene of one of the largest art openings in some time, as the newly opened Sugar Hill Art Center showed their first Black artist, Danny Simmons. The center which opened late last summer, had been showing top European and Israeli artists. The center features several galleries and is the idea of Donald Weiss, the landlord of the multi-gallery center. The Washington Heights area was aghast, as limos pulled up with fabulous guys and dolls somewhat reminiscent of Harlem’s heyday, the Harlem Renaissance.
