This party featured after-hours access to the exhibition before it opened to the public, open bar featuring wine and beer courtesy of Devil's Backbone, a specialty sweet-tea inspired cocktail called Deliverance, and a macaroni and cheese bar with other passed southern bites. Here are Securities and Exchange Commission’s Christina Thomas, Diane Morris, the New York Times’ Mikayla Bouchard and Katie Hatfield.
