Once in a Lifetime Chance to Be Amongst Design Enthusiasts at Historic Lynnewood Hall

AIA Philadelphia is excited to be attending DesignPhiladelphia's Beaux Arts Ball this weekend and you should come along. 

The Beaux Arts Ball is going to be *the* event of the season, and it will be nothing short of spectacular, blending the opulence of Gilded Age grandeur with cutting-edge immersive art and unforgettable performances. 

This event is taking place at historic mansion, Lynnewood Hall. Lynnewood Hall, often referred to as the "American Versailles," is one of the most magnificent Gilded Age mansions ever built in the United States. Constructed between 1897 and 1900 for industrialist Peter A.B. Widener, this 110-room estate in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania, stands as a symbol of both opulence and architectural brilliance. 

This event offers architecture enthusiasts a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of historic design while celebrating the art of design in a stunning setting. Lynnewood Hall, with its exquisite craftsmanship and rich history, provides the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable evening of networking, inspiration, and appreciation for the field. Your attendance helps DesignPhilly grow design education programs, giving underprivileged K-12 students the opportunity to explore their creative potential.

Whether you’re an architect, designer, or simply passionate about architecture, the Beaux Arts Ball promises to be a night of elegance, creativity, and community. Don’t miss your chance to connect with fellow enthusiasts and celebrate the legacy of design in a truly remarkable venue!
