Speaker: Franklin Hill Perrell & Debbie Wells - Franklin Hill Perrell and Debbie Wells are DTers, a renowned museum and gallery curatorial duo, and co-founders of “Artful Circle”, known for its superb ongoing art history and gallery programming. Franklin and Debbie are among our most popular speakers. Come and hear them on the

glories of the art in The Frick Collection, its current  reconstruction and expanded exhibition space, and the Gilded Age world of art collecting and philanthropy, probably as aggressively competitive as the coke and steel world of Pittsburgh from whence Frick sprang.  Bring guests!

Entertainer: David Sabella - best known for his years on Broadway in the musical CHICAGO, is also an award-winning actor, and an internationally recognized classical singer whom Luciano Pavarotti deemed “Excellent, not good, excellent!”
