About Event

An evening at the intersection of art, culture, and capital. “Scrolls of Wealth: The Art of Capital” brings together a curated community of investors, collectors, and creatives for a reflective exploration of patience, precision, and legacy.

Guests will enjoy opening remarks framing the evening’s theme, followed by a guided gallery walk and a hands-on creative activity inspired by traditional scrollwork. The experience is designed to spark dialogue between disciplines—where brushstrokes meet balance sheets, and art becomes a metaphor for long-term wealth creation.

This event is by invitation only. RSVPs are subject to approval.

Dress Code: Cocktail or gallery chic
