Art Alive 2026 Premiere Dinner

Thursday, April 23, 2026
6:30–11:00 p.m.

The Art Alive Premiere Dinner is an elegant black-tie affair that celebrates art with style and sophistication, set amid the Museum’s galleries. This year, the evening is inspired by the dazzling world of Toulouse-Lautrec and the legendary elegance of Maxim’s Paris, evoking the spirit of Belle Époque nightlife and artistic bohemia. Guests will enjoy an exclusive first look at the stunning floral masterpieces of Art Alive before the exhibition opens to the public. The night features a sumptuous multi-course menu of French-inspired delicacies, a full bar of premium selections, and decadent desserts; all in a setting designed to enchant and transport you to turn-of-the-century Paris.

Become a Premiere Patron and revel in this glamorous evening where art, joie de vivre, and timeless Parisian allure converge.
