Feasting on History, Art, and Beautiful Homes is a unique and popular event.
You’ll start the evening at the museum for wine and appetizers. Then you’ll be off for dinner at a private home - not knowing where you’ll go is part of the fun. You’ll enjoy a delicious meal with fellow attendees. Will you be at a historic home? One filled with art? You’ll find out that night. Lastly, every will convene at a third location for dessert. This fundraising event is a wonderful opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy interesting conversation in a beautiful home.
It’s a Museum member only event - but it’s quick and easy to join!
