\"DxD_Kelly<\/a>Presented by GE Monogram\u00ae and The Social Concierge, in partnership with IDSwest, Monogram\u00ae Dinner by Design<\/strong> is where Vancouver\u2019s twin touchstones of culinary and design culture converge for two tasty and tasteful nights on September 21 – 22, 2014, to benefit the Dr. Peter AIDS Foundation.<\/p>\n

Building on the success of last year\u2019s inaugural event, Monogram\u00ae Dinner by Design will give 20 nationally and internationally acclaimed interior designers a 12×12 foot space and free rein to create imaginative and extraordinary tablescapes, each telling a personal design story that will serve as the backdrop for these two magical events.<\/p>\n

Some of this year\u2019s participating designers include Western Living <\/em>Magazine\u2019s Robert Ledingham Memorial Award-winner Sophie Burke<\/a>, Robert Quinnell and David Keeler, owners of iconic Vancouver housewares store Provide<\/a>, and BYU<\/a>\u2019s award-winning designer Nicole Gomes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn one year, Monogram Dinner by Design has doubled in size and I\u2019m thrilled to see Vancouver\u2019s top design talent come together to showcase their unique designs while supporting the Dr. Peter AIDS Foundation,\u201d said Philippe Meyersohn, GM Marketing for GE Monogram.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, September 21, upwards of 400 people will gather at Cocktail Art!, <\/strong>a party to enjoy hors d’oeuvre from Culinary Capers Catering and Special Events and designer molecular mixology concocted by Absolut Brand Ambassador Jacob Sweetapple, served from behind two spectacular designer bars.<\/p>\n

Monogram\u00ae Dinner by Design <\/strong>takes place the following night, Monday, September 22, and will see 150 guests take their assigned seats at one of the event\u2019s 20 designer tablescapes for a sumptuous multi-course Culinary Capers feast complete with wine and bubble pairings.<\/p>\n

Those wishing to view the remarkable and unfettered creations of some of Canada\u2019s top designers may also take part in the public viewing on the afternoon of Monday, September 22 from noon to 5 p.m. or wait until all 20 tablescapes take pride of place at IDSwest from Thursday Sept. 25 through Sunday Sept. 28 at the Vancouver Convention Centre West.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
