This exhibit goes inside the creative mind of the late artist, designer and cultural tastemaker Virgil Abloh. Collaborations with Rem Koolhaas and Kanye West are featured, as well as memorabilia from Abloh’s private archive and fashion items from Off-White and Louis Vuitton. The show’s title is a tribute to Abloh’s signature use of quotation marks that ironically comment on objects and people. Through January 2023.

Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference

July 16-18

Known as the “summer camp for billionaires,” this exclusive weeklong conference brings the most powerful names in finance, media, tech and politics to Sun Valley, Idaho, for a press-free “hush-hush” conclave involving big-ticket deals, hiking, tennis and bridge.

Monaco Red Cross Ball

July 18

First chaired in 1948 by Prince Rainier III of Monaco, the ball continues to be a beacon of support to the Red Cross. Cocktails and dinner follow the opening auction held on the Terrasse du Soleil, with a live concert by Grammy Award-winning artist Alicia Keys as the evening’s highlight. Traditional fireworks light up Monaco’s sky as the party continues into the night.
