Join fellow Leaders of Design members for an extraordinary private experience celebrating two of Houston’s most iconic cultural institutions hosted by LDC member, Lea Weingarten.
The evening begins with cocktails and a private tour of the Menil House with lead curators of the Menil Collection. This was the first private residence designed by Philip Johnson (1948) and home of Jean and Dominique de Menil, founders of the Menil Collection and the Rothko Chapel.
Guests will then enjoy a private walkthrough of the Rothko Chapel. There, President Antepli will share the history, mission, and enduring impact of this internationally renowned sanctuary for art, spirituality, and human rights.
The evening concludes with dinner nearby at Chroma, the newest restaurant on the Menil campus. Thoughtful conversation, exceptional cuisine, and an inspiring setting will create a memorable evening of connection and cultural discovery.
In addition to the evening program, guests are invited to join an optional daytime itinerary featuring a visit to Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s award-winning installation in the Cistern at Buffalo Bayou, a casual Texas lunch, two private home and art collection tours, and a private tour of the Cy Twombly Pavilion led by Michelle White, Lead Curator.
This intimate gathering offers unparalleled access to two extraordinary artistic landmarks while fostering meaningful dialogue among design leaders and creative thinkers.
