The private institution’s largest fundraiser of the year, the Kreeger Gala provides Washingtonians with the unique opportunity to sip and sup amidst the priceless works of art belonging to the museum. And take advantage of such an opportunity they did, with well over a hundred guests in attendance.

And while His Excellency Peter Ammon, Ambassador of The Federal Republic of Germany (the gala's Honorary Patron), was unable to attend due to the weekend’s ongoing NATO Summit in Chicago, plenty of other VIPs could be spotted mingling about, including museum Director Judy A. Greenberg and Ineke Kreeger.

The elegant night began with cocktails set amidst the Kreeger collection, followed by dinner in the Great Hall, Salon, and inside the Monet Gallery. Attendees were then provided with exclusive first look access to the museum’s new reflecting pool, as the memorable event concluded with a dessert buffet on the Sculpture Terrace set to live jazz music.
