AFTER DARK AT THE ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO

As the original creator of the series and a nine year production partner, After Dark at the Modern Wing was born out of a desire to drive a new, young professional demographic to the museum. The event consistently sells out to a crowd of 1000+ who come to explore the museum after hours and rock out to DJs, VJs and performance artists who bring the work to life. We’ve welcomed close to 9,000 young professional to the museum, while introducing them to 15 up-and-coming musicians and band. After Dark Alumni include: Dan Black, Gavin Turek, The Cool Kids, Twinsmith.

MINDFUL MORNING WITH LULULEMON

On a steamy August morning in Madison we took to the street and brought together 400+ people for a moment of movement and meditation and celebration of mindfulness. Now that’s a lot of m’s. With the capitol building as our backdrop and the farmer’s market in full swing, our yogis brought the Madison community to life, just as the sun was rising.

NMPRAC | THE RAICES GALA

Each year, the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts & Culture selects two individuals in the Puerto Rican Arts & Culture community to receive the prestigious Ceiba Award. The Annual Raices Gala helps to raise the necessary funds of the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture to continue the thrive as a cultural anchor in the City of Chicago. As the only self-standing Puerto Rican museum in the United States the mission of the museum is to collaborate with other institutions to harness the necessary resources in order to expand their programming, exhibits and visitor experience.

PRIMO CENTER | THE ONE GALA

In their commitment to end homelessness, the Primo Center focused on sharpening their purpose and their resolve in 2017 — One Family. One Home — that’s what they are all about. Simple. Clear. It was a natural progression of events that the Center's most important fundraiser, and one of Chicago’s most celebrated social events, The Primo Classico, should also evolve. World-class cuisine, sleek design and style but infused with a new energy and spirit tied directly to the Center's sole purpose. In 2018 we carried this new mission over - with a very special jazz performance by Quintin Primo III himself and the Quintet. A New York City jazz club vibe, luscious dinner by Blue Plate and and very lively auction (with trips to Italy and Ireland!) made this 40th Anniversary a very special one indeed.
