3BYFOUR Event Series

3 Women. Four Nights a Year.

3BYFOUR is a quarterly, invitation-only event series put on by 3 women - Kitty Schur of The Collective Rising, Hannah Minardi of With Seven, and Olivia Davis of Art of Choice.

United by their commitment to curation, passion for connection, and knack for cultivating interesting conversations in unconventional settings, Kitty, Hannah and Olivia set-out to resurrect the outdated dinner parties, panels, and fundraisers of decades past and bring together today and tomorrow’s leading creative minds, innovators, activists and entrepreneurs for purpose-driven events designed to generate lasting impact..

All 3BYFOUR events are invitation-only to ensure a curated crowd. Attendees can expect to connect with like-minded individuals and forge relationships that will extend far beyond each evening’s end.

3BYFOUR offers a refined, yet fresh take on the outdated supper clubs of decades past.

Make no mistake…this is not your parents’ dinner party.

 

Highlighted Evenings

Gjelina | September 17th

On September 17th – 3BYFOUR partnered with our friends at Gjelina for dinner and drinks, with Rosé provided by Hampton Water Wine, a collaboration between Jon Bon Jovi and Gerald Bertrand for our second SOLD-OUT event.

Paying homage to The Case Study House program (1945-1966), NIGHT TWO reflected on the influence of American architecture throughout the city of Los Angeles from 1945 to present.

Guests arrived at Gjelina’s side-door promptly at 8:15pm, where they were checked-in and assigned a specific case study house before scaling the stairs up to one of Venice’s best hidden gems. Upstairs on the roof, guests mingled, drank and savored appetizers while mellow beats set the perfect tone to accompany the twinkling lights of Abbot Kinney’s skyline. Noah and Lindsay of The Haiku Guys and Gals thoughtfully crafted customs haikus for each guest, encouraging smiles and laughter from the crowd all evening.

Dinner was served family style, with guests forging meaningful new relationships and phones hidden away.

The evening concluded with a conversation between LaLa Magazine’s editor-in-chief Jessica Kantor and renowned art collector and architecture aficionado, Alberto Chehebar, who lives in a Richard Neutra-designed home. Guests observantly listened as Chehebar shared his thoughts on the dynamic relationship between contemporary art and mid-century architecture in the city 3BYFOUR’s founders call home.

“The Case Study House program (1945–1966) was a unique event in the history of American architecture. Sponsored by Arts & Architecture magazine, the program sought to respond to the postwar building boom with prototype modern homes that could be both easily replicated and readily affordable to the average American.

Concentrated on the Los Angeles area, the Case Study Houses included 36 model homes commissioned from such major architects of the day as Richard Neutra, Raphael Soriano, Craig Ellwood, Charles and Ray Eames, Pierre Koenig, Eero Saarinen, A. Quincy Jones, and Ralph Rapson. Their criteria included “using, as far as is practicable, many war-born techniques and materials best suited to the expression of man’s life in the modern world.”

 

Jon & Vinny’s | June 11th

On June 11th – 3BYFOUR partnered with our friends at Jon & Vinny’s for dinner and drinks, followed by a conversation led by J&V’s very own Vinny Dotolo where he reflected on how his life and career as a restaurateur and avid contemporary art collector intersect.
