Coco Chanel And Marion Pike!

Last night, we headed to the National Museum of Women in the Arts for an exclusive reception highlighting their newest exhibition, "Coco Chanel and Marion Pike."

We snapped Museum Trustees Northern Trust's Joanie Stringer, The Claro Group's Pamela Parizek and West Front Strategies' Ashley Davis with the evening's co-chair and board of trustees President Cindy Jones.

Attendees gathered in the ornate lobby and mezzanine for the open bar reception and exhibition. Here, Cushman & Wakefield Executive Managing Director Cathy Jones joins Museum President Emerita Carol Lascaris and Trustee Mary Mochary.
