We are delighted to invite you to join the Parrish Art Museum for a special journey to Marfa, Texas, from October 1–4, an extraordinary destination that has profoundly shaped the course of Contemporary Art. Rooted in the legacy of Donald Judd and Minimalism, this remote West Texas town has become one of the world’s most compelling cultural centers, where art, architecture, and the desert landscape exist in remarkable dialogue.
Beginning with your arrival in El Paso, the Parrish will lead a seamless four-day experience with exceptional access to Marfa’s artistic community and institutions. Highlights include private visits to the Judd Foundation, Chinati Foundation, and Ballroom Marfa, alongside opportunities to engage more deeply with the distinctive cultural landscape that defines this singular place.
Guests will enjoy thoughtfully curated dining experiences, accommodations at the design-forward Hotel Saint George, and memorable moments throughout the trip, from visiting Prada Marfa at sunset to an evening beneath the expansive desert sky in search of the legendary Marfa Lights.
The group will be intentionally limited in size to create a more intimate and meaningful experience, offering the opportunity to connect with both the art and one another in an extraordinary setting.
Participation includes accommodations, private visits, transportation from El Paso onward, and curated experiences throughout the program.
Program Cost:
$5,962 per person (Single Occupancy)
$5,179 per person (Double Occupancy / $10,358 total)
Plus a tax-deductible contribution of $3,500 per person to the Parrish Art Museum.
If you would like to receive a preliminary itinerary or have any questions, please reach out to membership@parrishart.org or compete the guest form here.
We hope you will be able to join us for this special experience.
