Crafting Modernism Opening Bash

On February 25, 2012, nearly 1,700 visitors were on hand for the opening of Crafting Modernism: Midcentury American Art and Design. Among the highlights: music by the Metropolitan Stompers, Zach and Lacey Lee, and the Ben Thomas Jazz Duo; screening of Rebel Without a Cause, and even a swanky “Frank Sinatra room” (aka cocktail lounge).
