This past weekend we enjoyed a wonderful evening discussing old houses, decorative arts, and the future of collecting with a packed audience. Many thanks to everyone who joined us, and especially to our two guest speakers, @michaeldiazgriffith and @kyle_marshall, for sharing their insights alongside our chief curator, Lauren Brincat.
