The spirits came early to The Dunlavy on Allen Parkway as Clark Cooper Concepts hosted a Dia De Los Muertos Themed Happy Hour on Thursday, October 20^th to benefit The Women’s Home. Over 200 guests were treated to Day of the Dead themed cocktails and appetizers while enjoying the revelries of a classic Mexican loteria.

In addition, Clark Cooper Concepts is fielding a team of six runners who will fundraise and race in the 2017 Aramco Half Marathon in support of The Women’s Home through the Chevron Houston Marathon Run for a Reason Program.

A smashing success!
Over 90 celebrants looking forward to our exciting fashion event this summer were treated like royalty by the incredible staff at Elizabeth Anthony. Special thanks to Julie Roberts for the red carpet treatment Thursday, April 21 in her beautiful store. Kicking off our upcoming event, chairs Staci Henderson and Michael Pearce graced the stairway…..Staci in a beautifully chic vintage gown purchased at the reNew event last year! Old friends and new committed to supporting the event with pledges of joining the host committee- a group that will insure the success of the August 17 tradition at The Wortham Foyer. Says Roberts, “I soon realized every lady deserves a red carpet experience when shopping for that special moment, so my mission evolved to apply the same principals to customers of all ages.”
