On Friday, August 6, 400 dinner guests settled in for an evening celebrating 90 years of Guild Hall and honoree, artist Robert Longo. The event began with a preview of Longo’s new exhibition “A History of the Present” at Guild Hall, then moved to a nearby estate for cocktails on the water and dinner under an open-air tent. The event raised over $800,000 in support of Guild Hall’s year-round interdisciplinary programs.

“A preview of Robert Longo’s powerful exhibition began the evening with a meaningful reflection on the last year, the natural world, and the creative community in which we live. Cocktails and dinner followed at a nearby private residence with one an ethereal and breathtaking view — downy acres of grass overlooking the bay at sunset. The dinner, with black and red décor, was picture perfect and celebrated the artist Robert Longo in style,” shared Guild Hall Executive Director Andrea Grover.
