Doors will open at 5 for networking. The cost is $12, or $10 for A.I.A. Peconic members. Registration details can be found on the museum’s website. 

On Friday, March 14, Brian Collins, a chef with a historical bent, will serve up an authentic St. Patrick’s Day dinner including mussels with Irish cider, colcannon, roast chicken with Cumberland sauce, roast lamb, and chocolate Guinness bread pudding.
