The International Executive Board meets in this beautiful room in May and November each year. International Chapter meets here in November each year and in May of the even numbered year. This formal, yet light and airy, room repeats the window treatments used across the entire front of the building. Cream and white string wallpaper and vanilla carpeting provide a sophisticated background for the beautiful dark wood of the furniture. Twenty-four Queen Ann style chairs, given by various regions, states, presidents' councils and chapters for members from their areas whom they wished to honor, surround the magnificent 22-foot long conference table. The table, contributed by North Carolina and Michigan, was given in honor of Past International Presidents Odell Smith and Ruth Golden. Both the table and chairs were made in Lexington, North Carolina. Brass plates with the name of the donor and the honoree may be found on many items throughout the building in recognition of their gifts. Other gifts of furniture include the lovely tea cart from Louisiana, honoring Past International President Mildred McCormick and the formal writing desk from Michigan honoring Past International President Ruth Calhoun.

The focal point and guiding light of this room is the set of gilded-framed portraits of our Founders. Each portrait is an oil painting done from a photograph. While the portraits were done by two different portrait studios, it is fascinating to note that as you walk around the room, the eyes of all four Founders seem to follow you.

The room is further accessorized by the beautiful cable-wound, triple chime Sligh wall clock, a gift of 1997 - 1999 Executive Board Chairman Rosemary Weddington; echoing the magnolia theme, a symbol of hospitality, are two original watercolors entitled "Magnificent Magnolias I and II" by Penny Thorsen, Georgia Beta Chapter, one given by the artist and the other by Past International President Melba Priestley; an antique cache pot on the buffet next to a graceful Italian glass vase filled with dried and silk material and a malachite marble lamp on the Queen Ann style desk.
