Mixer and Fundraiser: Remembering the Future with Herb Greene

We invite you to celebrate architect Herb Greene's 95th birthday at his stunningly designed O'Neill House (1966) in Lexington, Kentucky to raise money for the documentary film REMEMBERING THE FUTURE WITH HERB GREENE.

There will be food by Minton's 760, live music by Keith McCutchen, a sneak peak of the documentary, and an opportunity to have drinks and mingle with other mid-century design enthusiasts as well as the filmmakers!

REMEMBERING THE FUTURE WITH HERB GREENE explores Organic Modernism through the lens of the career of architectural legend (and longtime Lexington resident) Herb Greene. The film is directed by California architect and filmmaker Lila Cohen--who also happens to be Herb Greene's great-niece. Lila takes an intimate look at the overlooked, groundbreaking architecture movement ignited from the heart of the US in the 1950's by exploring the intricate legacy of her great-uncle. Lila searches for what became of Greene’s legacy from his Jewish upbringing in depression-era New York to becoming a pioneer under a changed name.

Through the film Lila explores her own creative potential in search for freedom from expectations and find a unique voice within.

All proceeds of the event will support the ongoing documentary film project which is in post-production and its final stages of production. This is an opportunity to support its completion.
