Prince of Downton Abbey: An Evening with Andrew Prince

Prince of Downton Abbey: An Evening with Andrew Prince

Presented by Columbia Museum of Art at Columbia Museum of Art

“You can’t have fun with diamonds, the value of them makes it all too serious. Jewelry should be about beauty not cost. If it has to be locked up it is not a jewel, it’s a worry.” – Andrew Prince

Join the Columbia Museum of Art on Sunday, December 4, from 5 to 8 p.m. for an evening with jewelry expert and designer Andrew Prince. Prince of Downton Abbey will feature a lecture on jewelry and fashion during the glittering period of the 19th and 20th centuries. This lecture will be accompanied by an elegant sit-down dinner and the opportunity to meet one of the world’s leading costume jewelry designers and craftsmen. Following his lecture, Andrew will host an exclusive trunk show featuring a selection of his one-of-a-kind jewelry inspired by Downton Abbey.

Andrew is best known for his design of costume jewelry for television and films including Downton Abbey, The Young Victoria (2009), and Muppets Most Wanted (2014).  Learn what inspired him as he created jewelry for icons of both stage and screen – notably Dame Maggie Smith, Dame Judi Dench, Emily Blunt, and Miss Piggy. 

A portion of the proceeds from the trunk show and ticket sales will go to support the mission of the Columbia Museum of Art to provide outstanding art and arts education for lifelong learning and community enrichment.
