Supported by Swarovski, the event features a festive picnic by Campagna, the restaurant of The Bedford Post Inn.

Enjoy a performance by Lucky Dragons and listen to DJs Timo + Alan play the perfect blend of summer hits while trying your hand at classic lawn games such as croquet and ping-pong. 

Stop by the Design Within Reach photo booth to capture the moment or lounge on one of their chaise lounges.

If you are more leisure-minded, enjoy a glass of Taittinger champagne and explore the early paintings and graphic design work of Elaine Lustig Cohen in the Painting Gallery, or Highlights from the Sculpture Gallery, featuring Robert Morris' "Untitled (Nine Fiberglass Sleeves)," 1967, on view to the public for the first time in Da Monsta.
