If you missed the Warhol Dinner Party or the Egyptian Dinner Party, you must see, from the videos, that
you need to be at the next gala evening (“The Art of Nature: A
Glamping Dinner Party”) at the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens. These Dinner Parties are a wonderful way to
help the Cummer while you enjoy an evening of wining and dining, culture and
fine entertainment.
Glamping is where nature meets luxury, and the perfect spot to glamp is the
Cummer Gardens. Connect with the
outdoors in style during this fancy, bohemian fete amidst the Cummer Oak and
historic gardens. Wander the Olmsted,
Italian and English Gardens and experience a unique culinary feature at every
turn, whether in one of our garden tents or charming outdoor lounges. This will
be a garden party like no other – a true celebration of glamour entwined with
nature!
All Dinner Party guests will enjoy beer, wine, hors d’oeuvres, themed music,
artful experiences, and dinner. VIP
guests will enjoy a private art tour with selections chosen to complement each
event, along with a signature cocktail prior to the start of the evening, from
5:30 to 6 p.m.

On Jan.6th, patrons recently celebrated the
start of 2020 with the Cummer Museum of Arts’ recent acquisition of works by
artist and pop-culture icon, Andy Warhol.
You would have loved to join the Cummer as they journeyed back to 1977,
when pant legs were big and disco ruled the world! They honored this legendary American artist
and reimagine the Terry Gallery as the famed Studio 54 club. Whether you were dripping in sequins, or chic
in vintage Halston & mink, guests were ready to ‘Boogie Down Broadway’
during an evening of glitz and glamour at “The Art of Pop: A Warhol Dinner
Party.”
All Dinner Party guests enjoyed an open bar of beer & wine; hors d’oeuvres;
themed music from DJ Nick Fresh and a few disco dancers from the Jacksonville
Dance Theatre; famed Warhol art; a gift shop full of exquisite gifts and other
trinkets, and a delicious dinner. Guests
also enjoyed a private art tour along with a signature cocktail prior to the
start of the evening. Dr. Adam Levine,
Director & CEO of the Cummer, welcomed his guests and made introductions throughout
the party.
Please allow me to share some of the scrumptious items from the dinner menu: Shrimp
and Lobster Salad with Pea Tendrils, Corn Shoots, Frisee, Purple Beet
Puree, Champagne and Golden Tomato Vinaigrette topped with an Edible Flower.
Tomato Bisque Shooter, Gourmet Grilled Cheese Selection, Truffle Infused

Mini Beef Sliders stuffed with mushroom Duxelle with Roquefort
Cheese and a Port Reduction on Buttered Brioche Bun. Roasted Stuffed Mushrooms with Spinach,
Boursin & Panko. Rosemary and
Parmesan Crinkle Fries served with ketchup.
