MAY 27 TO MAY 30, 2022
FRIDAY, WELCOME !
Starting at 7 p.m., El Cosmico
We’ll have drinks and barbecue(with plenty of sides)in the fields at El Cosmico. We will be between Little Pinky and Amigo. Stay for a beer or for hours. No matter what you decide, we will be there. Come hang out and maybe sing some karaoke.
Wear campground summer chic
SATURDAY, ART IN THE MORNING; VOWS IN THE EVENING
8:50 a.m. - Meet at Robert Irwin's untitled (dawn to dusk) located on Bonnie Street
We will have a custom tour of the Chinati Foundation’s collections. We will walk more than a mile and move between indoor and outdoor spaces. The tour will start at 9 a.m. sharp and finish around 12 p.m.
Wear your walking shoes
6 p.m. Join us at Do Right Hall for a vow renewal ceremony. The ceremony will be immediately followed by light refreshments.
Beginning around 7:15 p.m. we will have dinner and dancing at The Capri. The chef is cooking especially for us. Please flag any dietary restrictions in advance.
Wear formal-ish. Dresses for ladies and suits for gentlemen. Go formal and minimal like Judd, or get colorful like Flavin. Be creative.
ON SUNDAY, SWIM & LOUNGE
Starting at 11 a.m. join us at the pool at the Thunderbird to eat a taco, or three, some fried chicken and nurse a hangover with a Topo Chico.
Wear your pool party best
In the evening, we have no fixed plans, but may meander to spot the illusive Marfa Lights and might hop in a wood-fired hot tub back at El Cosmico.
WHAT ELSE TO DO IN MARFA
These are a few of our favorite places around town, but we are by no means the experts. For that kind of advice, we turn to the Wrong Store and El Cosmico. Here are a few of our favorites:
For more art: Andy Warhol at the Ayn Foundation, the Block Tour with the Judd Foundation, Ballroom Marfa and The concrete Judd sculptures and the Chamberlin building from the Chinati Foundation. And of course, the Prada store.
Other places to eat: the Water Stop and Margaret’s for dinner; Frama Coffee, the Sentinel (also the town’s newspaper !) and Do Your Thing for coffee + snacks; Marfa Burrito for the best breakfast burritos and Food Shark for lunch.
Where to shop: The Wrong Store, The Wrong Store, The Wrong Store; Marfa Book Co + Freda; Cobra Rock Books for the best leather goods; Raba Marfa for great vintage; Garza Marfa for all beautiful things; El Cosmico’s gift shop is great AND they have a flea market on Saturday
[HERE’S A MOSTLY UP TO DATE MAP]
Note: The tour will not include the concrete Judd sculptures or the Chamberlin building, but you will have access to both anytime on Thursday, Friday or Saturday as part of our group.
