6:30–11:00 p.m.
The Art Alive 2027 Premiere Dinner will be an elegant black-tie celebration of art, nature, and inspired design, unfolding al fresco in the Museum’s beautiful Sculpture Garden. The evening will transform the garden into an enchanting setting where lush natural elements, sculptural forms, and atmospheric details come together beneath the open sky. During cocktail hour, guests will enjoy an exclusive first look at the extraordinary floral interpretations of Art Alive before the exhibition opens to the public, followed by a sumptuous multi-course dinner, premium wines and cocktails, and decadent desserts surrounded by art and greenery. This unforgettable evening will celebrate the beauty of the natural world and the landscapes that inspire us.
