We'll be mixing fine spirits with historic inspiration on this evening dedicated to exploring guilty pleasures as only the Director's Circle can. First, have a peek at vintage cocktail establishment promotions and accessories with our chief curator, Silvia Barisione, and curator of library collections, Frank Luca. Then let mixologist and cocktail history buff Kevin Baird change the way you think about cocktails as he shares the secrets of his artisanal libations. While you enjoy these crafted drinks, network with fellow members (share your own vices if so inclined!) during a reception.

This event is the first in an annual series exploring the sins and satisfactions of vices.
