The LA-based MAK Center is a contemporary center for art and architecture headquartered in three architectural landmarks by the Austrian-American architect Rudolph M. Schindler.
Virgo Rising, this year’s annual gala, celebrated the Center's year-round programming and longstanding commitment to building community through art and architecture. The benefit dinner coincided with R.M. Schindler’s birthday and featured a constellation of rising chefs.
Attendees sipped on A Few Good Things during an evening featuring a cocktail reception, an intimate dinner, surprises, and special guests, all taking place in the gardens of the Schindler House.

A Few Good Things
Bad habits make us feel better—at first. But they have a backlash of their own, and soon we can find ourselves each day more run down than the last. Relief can be found on a short trip to the vegetable patch, or its modern equivalent: the produce aisle. Seek out the stunted, the ugly, battered and the blemished fruits and vegetables. Like people, produce is all the more palatable when it’s not perfect.
