This yearย’s speakers at the Houston Heritage Luncheon, Leslie and Leigh Keno, spend most of their time surrounded by beautiful things. But then again, everyone does. The difference? While we see a dusty old chair, the Keno brothers see a connection to Americaย’s history, a blending of function, aesthetics and social norm. Theyย’ll discuss how they discover hidden treasures among everyday objects ย— and how you can, too. 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. River Oaks Country Club, 1600 River Oaks. For information, call 713-655-1912 or visit www.heritagesociety.org. $200.
