On the evening of Fri. April 19th, guests were taken away to a Chic Supper Club as we presented “NIGHTS IN HAVANA.” We evoked the Cuban vibes of the 1950’s, the glamorous days gone by, where men were gentlemen and ladies took center stage! Only the elite and fashionable attended.

The evening’s festivities included a lavish 3-course sit down dinner prepared by Private Chef Markus Ford (recently seen on ABC’s "The Taste"). Each course was paired with 3 premium wines. Guests also enjoyed a Fashion Show during each course as they dined; featuring 3 Chicago Fashion Designers. Fashion Show produced by Benjamin Cottrell Designs.
