Special HCRT Reception and Tour of the New West Building of the NC Museum of Art
Spend an elegant evening at the NC Museum of Art with Director Dr. Lawrence Wheeler.
Spend an elegant evening with fellow Harvard alums and their guests at the beautiful NC Museum of Art, as we kick off our Fall membership drive with a ceremony honoring the museum’s acclaimed director, Dr. Lawrence Wheeler. Under Dr. Wheeler's guidance, the museum has become one of the nation’s most popular and successful centers for the visual and performing arts. In recognition of his landmark achievements, Dr. Wheeler has been chosen to receive the club’s second annual Roland Giduz Award for Community Service.
Following the award ceremony and reception, Dr. Wheeler will describe some of the challenges the museum faced during its recently completed expansion, and he will answer questions while we enjoy wine and hors d'oeuvres from the museum's expanded kitchen. Afterward, Dr. Wheeler has promised to lead us on a tour of the museum’s beautiful and environmentally sustainable new facilities and point out some of its most notable recent acquisitions.
Any excuse to visit our state's exceptional art museum is a good one, but this promises to be an especially fine evening. How often will you have the opportunity to view these fine works of art in the company of the museum director as well as fellow Harvard alumni?
Reservations for this event are limited. To make sure that our current (dues paying) members are able to make reservations for themselves and their guests, initial registration is limited. If you have not already paid your membership dues, you can pay before making reservations for yourself and your guest(s). Otherwise, you will have to take your chances that the event will not sell out quickly. At a later date, there may be some space available for alumni who are not current with their dues, but there can be no guarantee of that.
