Houston art aficionados attending this year’s Museum of Fine Arts Houston Grand Gala Ball were treated to an evening of cocktails, conversation, and exquisite dining. What’s not to love about that? Event chair and MFAH Director Peter Marzio joined a gorgeous crowd of over 400 to celebrate the museum’s new collection, Masterpieces from the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston: Director´s Choice – this museum always gets it right. Guests enjoyed a delectable dinner of jumbo crab parfait, beef tenderloin and fabulous dessert trios prepared by City Kitchen before dancing the night away in fabulous black-tie ensembles. The celebration of art raised a grand $1.3 million in honor of MFAH’s future programs and exhibitions.
