Art patrons, socialites, live music, and an immaculately laid buffet dinner kept the event rollicking till the very end. The event was held inside the museum’s Kogod courtyard. Beams of purple and pink light emanating from the floor provided a perfect backdrop to the centerpiece of the evening: artist Karen LaMonte’s ‘Reclining Dress Impression with Drapery’ on display at the center.
