Summer Party/The Glass House
Dining al fresco, art and design enthusiasts celebrated the 75th anniversary of The Glass House in New Canaan with a gourmet picnic and lawn party. Guests admired Philip Johnson’s award-winning architecture, along with the expansive landscape and recently restored Brick House (see more on page 15), open to the public for the first time in 16 years. Ed Ruscha, the featured Summer Party artist, said his work was inspired by the property’s “reflections and shadows from glass windows and doors.” Listening to DJ Rachel Winters spinning summer tunes, attendees were treated to an art installation showcasing various artists, a Max Mara shopping experience, wine and handcrafted cocktails as well as a catered picnic by Elm. theglasshouse.org
