LIVE From the Drawing Room

LIVE From the Drawing Room
Thursday, May 14, 8 PM, CDT

We have greatly missed being able to share the Museum with the people who love it and have been working hard to create an experience that would allow us to do just that.

Allow the stunning interiors of the Driehaus Museum to once again transport you to another time and place - now, from the comfort of your own living room.

Celebrated local musician Patrick Donley will play a wide-range of selections from the period on the Driehaus Museum's exquisite Chickering & Sons piano along with some discussion about the music and the instrument.

From Schubert to Joplin, Donley's joyful playing along with a cocktail demonstration and curatorial insights will provide plentiful after-dinner entertainment. It's prime time, Gilded Age-style - we hope you will join us! 

SUGGESTED DONATION: $20
