Parrish Art Museum Midsummer Party in Southampton, NY |
The Parrish Art Museum in Southampton held its annual Midsummer Party last Saturday night at the museum’s arboretum on Jobs Lane.This year they honored the “creative spirit of the East End,” including director/choreographer Patricia Birch, visual artist Chuck Close, author/historian Barbara Goldsmith, interior designers Tony Ingrao and Randy Kemper, musician G.E. Smith, and dancer/choreographer Paul Taylor.
This was the final gala held in the Jobs Lane / Southampton space, and a last hurrah and farewell before the museum will move to the new Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, designed by Herzog & de Meuron and opening November 10th. |
