The Gilded Age raised the practice of entertaining at home to an art form. This episode of “Live From the Drawing Room” features an evening of entertainment at the Nickerson Mansion.

Music man, Patrick Donley will delight our ears, “The Cocktail Guy,” Greg Shutters will please our palates, and the surroundings of the Mansion itself will captivate your eyes.

Amongst the evening’s special guests are historian and PAN scholar Dr. Max Koss who provides insights into the Driehaus Museum’s current exhibitions: PAN: Prints of Avant-Garde Europe, 1895-1900 and William H. Bradley and The Chap-Book.

The evening will also include a special visit to the Richard H. Driehaus Vintage Car Collection.

Including featured performers:
