Let's Hear It for the 'Girls!' Astros' Wives Throw a Fash Bash for Charity

Samantha Scott, Reagan Bregman and Kara McCullers

DOZENS OF SAVVY socialites and shoppers gathered at Tootsies to sip and shop during an event hosted by Kat Pressly and Janelise Maldonado, wives of Astros stars.


The afternoon benefited Girls Inc., a nonprofit that gives school-age girls enrichment opportunities such as day camps and seminars, and encourages them to be "strong, smart and bold." The Houston CEO, Treopia Cannon, stopped by to thank attendees and tell them a little more about the organization.

Dressed in summertime shades of green, pink and white — and, of course, Astros orange and blue — the fashionable femmes included Reagan Bregman, Kara McCullers, and Astros execs Paula Harris and Anita Sehgal. Raffle winner Donna Lewis received four club-level seats for an upcoming game!

ON SATURDAY JULY 27, Foltz Gallery presents Endless Summer, a lively, playful exhibit of works by a multi-generational group of 28 emerging and established Texas-based artists. Taking its name from the 1974 Beach Boys double-album, which compiled the group’s early 1960s hit singles, the show is a visual “mixtape” of colorful paintings, prints, photographs, wall-based installations, ceramics and sculptures, installed lovingly throughout Foltz’s spacious and sunlit galleries. Among the works in Endless Summer are several examples of handmade “sculptural jewelry” by artist Rachel Gardner — a series of wearable wildflowers and fruits, including olives and strawberries.
