An Evening of McQueen: Mind, Mythos, Muse at LACMA + Dinner

On Saturday July 30th, you're invited to join fellow art-full women as we dive into the world of Lee Alexander McQueen at the Mind, Mythos, Muse show at LACMA, followed by a delicious dinner at Fanny's.

One of the most significant contributors to fashion, Lee Alexander McQueen (London, 1969–2010) was both a conceptual and technical virtuoso. His critically acclaimed collections synthesized the designer’s proficiency in tailoring and dressmaking with both encyclopedic and autobiographical references that spanned time, geography, media, and technology. The first McQueen exhibition on the West Coast, Lee Alexander McQueen: Mind, Mythos, Muse contextualizes the designer’s imaginative work within a canon of artmakers who drew upon analogous themes and visual references.

We'll have a self-guided visit of the exhibit followed by dinner & drinks at Fanny's. All attendees are encouraged (though not required) to read Blood Beneath the Skin, by Andrew Wilson, in order to enhance their experience of the exhibit.

All tickets include museum/exhibit entry. Full experience tickets also include shared appetizers at dinner (burrata, gem salad & black truffle hummus). A full meal is NOT included and all drinks, as well as additional food, should be ordered on a separate check and paid individually at the restaurant.

Meredith Maggiora will be the local CA-based hosts for this event.

Tickets for museum only: $25 early bird; $30 full price
Ticket for full experience with shared appetizers at dinner: $55 early bird; $60 full price

This is my first Women of Culture event, what can I expect?

Each of our experiences is carefully curated and thoughtfully organized with the intention of encouraging womxn from all walks of life to push their boundaries, discover new perspectives and more deeply understand themselves and the world around them — so they are better equipped to shape it.

What if I don’t know anyone - can I attend alone?

YES! Most people attend events alone and make new friends and acquaintances along the way. All events are designed to make solo attendees feel right at home and able to meet others.

What kind of women are at the events?

We are a diverse community of women from all different walks of life, backgrounds and demographics — united by a shared interest in art & culture and a desire to meet fellow arts-minded women. The majority of attendees are in their late 30’s-early 50’s, working in a wide variety of professional careers. The only requirement is an interest in the arts and meeting new people, as well as an open heart and mind.
