The 17th annual Rice Design Alliance Gala - RevolvelEvolve; As the City
Turns - celebrated the continuing transformation of downtown Houston.
The party was held November 8, 2003, in one of the city's newest skyscrapers, 1500 Louisiana, designed for Enron by Cesar Pelli Et Associates. Gala
chairs Jane and Ken Rage greeted guests as they arrived via escalators to the
sky bridge level that connects the first Enron building to the new 40-stofy
tower. Underwriters were seated in the circular sky ring over Smith Street
and enjoyed a delicious dinner provided by Jackson and Company.
The evening included a fabulous silent auction, chaired by Judith McClain,
that raised a record $62,500. Houston artists donated pieces that raised
more than $24,000 in the auction. Julie Kinzelman curated the works.
The ROA Award for Design Excellence, a Steuben Glass bowl donated by
Neiman Marcus, was awarded to Central Houston Inc., which has been the
steward of Houston's vision for the redevelopment and revitalization of
downtown since 1983. Central Houston's president, Bob Eury, and its chairman, Richard Everett, accepted the award.
Environment co-chairs Lauren Rottet and Erick Ragni worked with the
fd2s graphic design team to create a sophisticated ambience. A warm orange
glow filled the sky ring, and party guests in the Revolve Lounge danced
under blue and silver lights to the music of El Orbits.
Intell Management and Investment Company's Henry Terech Jr. was
beaming to see so many people - more than 900 - in the building his
company then owned, a building that was designed for entertaining large
groups. Underwriting chairs Kimberly and Tim Debner were also all smiles as
their committee raised $355,000 for RDA programs and Cite.
