The Parrish Art Museum’s Midsummer Weekend — a benefit for the museum featuring three distinct events that brought together artists, art collectors, curators, philanthropists, and business leaders — raised over $1 million.
The Midsummer Dance on August 13 featured a DJ set by James Murphy (DFA Records/LCD Soundsystem); Dorothy Lichtenstein was the honorary chair of the Saturday Midsummer Dinner, where artist Tomashi Jackson was honored; and the Midsummer Family Benefit on Sunday, August 15, featured a performance by the National Circus Project and a collaborative mural workshop with artist Nathan Carter.
