Last Wednesday night, there was the annual Frick Spring Garden Party for Fellows. Like everything else the Frick does, this is an elegantly simple party, or as elegant and simple as it can be in and around one of the great remaining mansions from early 20th century New York.

The Frick is always the allure. The world feels better, at least for the moment once you are on the grounds and in the house of Mr. Frick with his stupendous collection paintings, sculpture and furniture, not to mention décor.

This year's party was named Sprezzatura. The name was taken from the famous and enigmatic portrait by Parmigianino, Schiava Turca, which is on loan to the collection through July 20th. The painting of the sumptuously costumed noblewoman epitomizes the "nonchalant grace" (sprezzatura) of Renaissance courtly behavior and fashionable style.

It wasn't the warm night that it had been only a couple of days before, so the 500 guests moved into the mansion once the Sun began to set over Central Park across the avenue.

In the 1935 Music Room The Bob Hardwick Sound had begun warming up the guests for the night of dancing and cocktails, champagne and hors d'oeuvres. A beautiful party in such an elegantly timeless environment.

Approaching its twentieth anniversary, NYRP launched the “Gardens for Great New Yorkers” garden adoption campaign. With 23 of the organization’s 52 community gardens up for adoption, individuals have the opportunity to support public green spaces and foster social and environmental resilience in the most densely populated and least green neighborhoods of New York City. Over one million New Yorkers live within half a mile of an NYRP garden, which is frequented for urban agriculture, community gatherings and celebrations, school trips, art and performance venues, and more.

Also on the Plaza was a casita, a modular outdoor shed structure that can be built at each of NYRP’s 52 community gardens.  NYRP partnered with Urban Air Foundation, TEN Arquitectos, and Buro Happold to create a modular garden structure that is built like a little Lego house.  NYRP is the only organization in the country pioneering this kind of radical garden architecture.  It can be taken apart and made into a gazebo, or a storage shed, or a pergola.  Eventually outfitted with solar panels on the roof, people in under-resourced communities can use it to enjoy a beautiful summer day with their children or charge their phones during a power outage like after Sandy.

Last Thursday night at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx, they were hosting their annual Conservatory Ball and honoring Gregory Long, who is celebrating his 25th year anniversary as the Director of the Botanical Garden.

The evening is one of the most beautiful and famous secrets of the New York social set. Its supporters are deeply committed to the Botanical Garden.

For many it is the last big Ball of the Spring social season. Like the Enid Haupt Conservatory that dominates the Garden’s architecture, beautifully produced in the old fashioned sense. The idea is to celebrate the efforts to support the Garden by having a lovely dinner dance with good food, good music and the ladies dressed for the occasion: elegantly.

Lenox Hill Hospital opened its inaugural Designer Showhouse of New York with a Preview Party on Thursday, May 15. Interior designers Alexa Hampton and Richard Mishaan served as co-chairs of the event. NYC&G (New York Cottages & Gardens) served as the Design Magazine Media Sponsor, NBC TV’s Open House the broadcast sponsor, and Fendi Casa the design sponsor. 

All proceeds from The Designer Showhouse of New York benefit the new Lenox Hill HealthPlex, scheduled to open this June.  The Lenox Hill HealthPlex represents a new model of community-based care for West Side residents who have had to travel out of their neighborhoods to access emergency and other critical health care services for the past four years. It will offer health and wellness services with seamless access to 24-hour emergency care and a full range of medical specialists.  The complex will be anchored by Manhattan’s first freestanding Emergency Department and future phases will include an imaging center, ambulatory surgery suite, outpatient rehabilitation programs, health and wellness services, and a host of other medical specialties designed to meet the needs of the community.

On Tuesday, June 10, The Couture Council of The Museum at FIT hosted a conversation and lunch for 75 Couture Council members and Board members with Zac Posen at The Doubles Club in New York City. The Couture Council’s very own Dr. Valerie Steele, who is The Museum at FIT’s Director and Chief Curator, moderated the conversation.

The Couture Council Board Chair, Yaz Hernandez welcomed luncheon guests and introduced Zac Posen and Dr. Valerie Steele. One thing that Posen reflected on during the conversation is the fact that Tom Ford supported his vision. Posen said, "I wouldn’t be in business if it wasn’t for Tom Ford. He took a risk, and wrote a check, and paid for my second fashion show without meeting me."

The Community Foundation of Oyster Bay held its annual Garden Party on Saturday, May 31st at the Oyster Bay Cove home of founding trustees George and Abby O'Neill.

Board President Joseph Donohue of Oyster Bay thanked the assembled crowd of over 250 party goers for its participation and encouraged them to find ways great and small to continue to be actively engaged in this community. He went on to explain that while the local organizations that the Foundation helps to support have had to contend with severe funding cutbacks, more people than ever before have been turning to them for help. These organizations rely on the Community Foundation to help sustain the great work that they do.

Founded in 1965, the Community Foundation provides financial support for the Youth and Family Counseling Agency, the Parent-Child Home Program, the YFCA Summer Experience, the Bulluck Horizons Program, the Life Enrichment Center, the Hispanic Cultural Center, The Main Street Association and the Waterfront Center.

A week ago last Tuesday (June 10th), the legendary Apollo Theater on 125th Street in Harlem celebrated its 80th Anniversary with a big Birthday celebration version of their annual Spring Gala. Departing from its tradition of inducting legends into the Apollo Hall of Fame, this year’s Gala celebrated the eight decades of artistic brilliance that have been presented on the Apollo stage since 1934. The gala was their most successful so far, raising a record-breaking $2.3 million.

It was an amazing event with performances by Gladys Knight, Natalie Cole, Doug E Fresh, The Isley Brothers, Joss Stone, Amateur Night winner Matthew Whitaker, and hosted by Wayne Brady. The evening explored the Apollo’s contribution to American culture over the last eight decades spanning music, comedy and dance. For example, Brady performed Ray Charles’“Georgia” with the 2010 Amateur Night Child Star of Tomorrow and jazz musician Matthew Whitaker, a 13-year prodigy who happened to have been born blind. Savion Glover performed an unrehearsed number with Doug E Fresh on beatbox.

The Apollo is a national treasure. It has had a significant impact on the development of American culture and its popularity around the world. Since introducing the first Amateur Night contests in 1934, the Apollo Theater has played a major role in cultivating artists and in the emergence of innovative musical genres including jazz, swing, bebop, R&B, gospel, blues, soul, and hip-hop. Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, Sammy Davis, Jr., James Brown, Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby, Gladys Knight, Luther Vandross, D’Angelo, Lauryn Hill, and countless others began their road to stardom on the Apollo’s stage.

This past Saturday afternoon, over 250 guests including artists, architects, designers, collectors, and modernist enthusiasts celebrated The Glass House Summer Party and 65th anniversary bringing in a record $300,000, supporting the Glass House site and preservation projects.

Guests sipped Taittinger champagne and enjoyed canapés and picnic by Elm Restaurant. Each of the picnic baskets was adorned with elegant Swarovski crystals. DJ Arp played his melodic music while harpist Mary Lattimore performed her modernist melodies under the trees in front of the painting gallery. Guests were able to stroll the grounds and interplay with the Fujiko Nakaya: Veil fog installation, as well as enjoy the new exhibition: Six Panels: Al Taylor organized by Robert Storr.

Guests enjoyed giant chess and ping pong and had fun taking portraits in front of the Glass House with Design Within Reach's photo booth while Makerbot designed limited edition Glass House models and bookmarks for guests to take home. Fierce bidding took place for work by Richard Barnes, Richard Serra and his nephew Shelter Serra, as well as for Adam Fuss, Nan Goldin, and other artists including David Diao, Olaf Bruening, Holton Rower, Crash (John Matos), and Julia Chang.

A private collector snapped up the Glass House overnight and dinner package, as well as a trip to Fogo Island, the Modernist resort in Newfoundland. Also drawing a lot of attention was the beautiful crystal necklace by Atelier Swarovski by Maison Martin Margiela. The VIP gift bags included Ralph Lauren candles, two beautiful books from Monacelli Press, Aesop products, a DWR gift certificate and more.

The Courthouse, at 40 Centre Street on Foley Square in lower Manhattan, was completed in 1936 to the designs of Cass Gilbert and his son, Cass Gilbert, Jr.  It is in the neoclassical style, with Minnesota granite for the building exterior and glazed terra cotta for the pyramid and lantern.  The Courthouse is a designated New York City landmark and on the National Register of Historic Places.  Despite its significance, it suffered from decades of inattention and insensitive modifications.  But last year, the Courthouse emerged from a comprehensive ten-year, $314 million renovation.

 “This magnificent restoration brings back an extraordinary landmark Courthouse honoring citizens, the judges and the law,” said Peg Breen, President of The New York Landmarks Conservancy.  “We are pleased to honor so many of the firms and people involved in this lengthy and painstaking transformation.”

The eminent Hudson River School painter Frederic Edwin Church (1826-1900) designed Olana, his family home, studio, estate and working farm as an integrated environment embracing architecture, art, and landscape. Considered one of the most important artistic residences in the United States, Olana is a landmark of picturesque landscape gardening with a Persian-inspired house at its summit, embracing unrivaled panoramic view of the vast Hudson Valley.
 
The Olana Partnership supports the conservation, preservation, development and improvement of the Olana State Historic Site, which is open to the public throughout the year.  Its goal is to inspire the public by preserving and interpreting Olana, and to create the most widely recognized artist's home and studio in the world, vibrant with the activity of students, visitors and scholars.

Over in Chicago, more than 325 guests celebrated the beginning of the summer party season at the Summer Dinner Dance at the Chicago Botanic Garden. The black-tie soiree began with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres served on the Esplanade, followed by an intimate dinner dance in an elegant pavilion. One of the most talked-about events on the North Shore and in the Chicago area, the 2014 Summer Dinner Dance raised $425,000 for the Garden’s science and education programs.

HMR Designs created the beautiful setting inside the tent with white peonies and a modern green-and-white palette. Passed hors d'oeuvres and dinner was catered by Calihan Catering. Lynne Jordan and the Shivers played while guests danced the night away. Guests received mini orchids and chocolate chip cookies before departing through paths lined with luminaria.

A social calendar highlight for the past ten years, this annual event raises vital operating support for the Museum of Fine Arts. A portion of the proceeds from this year's Summer Party benefits an endowed Museum Council Special Exhibition Fund.

Saturday afternoon at a private residence in Bridgehampton, the Parrish Art Museum held a cocktail reception to celebrate summer 2014 at the museum and to kick-off its annual Midsummer benefit gala, which will be held in the Herzog & de Meuron-designed building in Water Mill.

This year they will be honoring philanthropist Inga Maren Otto and author/documentary filmmaker Katharina Otto-Bernstein. Attendees will get the wonderful last chance to see artist Jennifer Bartlett's first major museum survey, and Maya Lin's ecologically inspired sculptures. It's always a fun party and it brings out the great collectors, artists, culture mavens and residents who support the museum for what it brings to the community.

This past Thursday at American Museum of Natural History, The Junior Council concluded its 2013-2014 season with Inside Dark Universe—a special screening of the Museum’s Space Show Dark Universe, which is narrated by Neil deGrasse Tyson, the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium. The event featured remarks by Rosamond Kinzler, the executive producer of Dark Universe and senior director of science education at the Museum, and Vivian Trakinski, Dark Universe producer. Afterwards, there was a cocktail and jazz reception on the Museum’s Arthur Ross Terrace.

Dark Universe takes viewers through the recent dramatic advances in our knowledge of the universe and explores what’s to come in the future of cosmology. Through an extremely detailed, never-before-seen visualization based on new scientific data, the audience experiences how dark matter—an invisible form of matter—shapes galaxies and delves into the mysteries of dark energy, the force that is accelerating the expansion of the universe.

One of the South's most prestigious white tie galas, the 52nd Annual Swan Ball was held on June 7th, 2014 at Cheekwood in Nashville, Tennessee. The Ball defined chic sophistication in an elegant Southern garden's setting. More than 730 guests attended the main Ball with an additional 270 at The Late Party, held for the younger Swan set.

Under the leadership of The Swan Ball 2014 Co Chairmen Mrs. Randall Loftin Kinnard (Peggy) and Mrs. Toby Stack Wilt, Jr. (Betsy), local ball designer Gavin Duke, along with event planner Jenny Richter Corts and floral designers extraordinaire Mark O'Bryan and Jane Sloan, created a decadent and chic garden affair with all the accoutrements and gracefulness of a magical yet classical evening. The Ball netted more than $1 million for Cheekwood.

This year's Swan Award was presented to the internationally-renowned designer Bunny Williams of New York City. Ms. Williams has many connections with the Nashville crowd, including her long-time support of Cheekwood and its annual Antiques & Gardens Show. The event's special headline entertainment, always a favorite, was Steve Martin and The Steep Canyon Rangers featuring Edie Brickell. Yes, the same "wild and crazy guy" who is also one of the country's leading Americana genre musicians.

The Swan Ball 2014 brought back Verdura, one of Ball's most beloved jewelers, with a very special and exclusive 75th anniversary showing.

Immediately following dinner, five select lots were sold in a live auction led by Sotheby's own Jamie Niven.

The American Institute for Stuttering (AIS) Benefit Gala on Monday, June 23rd, attracted a powerhouse crowd comprised of the financial world’s most influential leaders who turned out in force to honor two giants in their community – Jack Welch and Jes Staley – with the Freeing Voices Changing Lives Award.

The award is presented to individuals who have overcome their stuttering disorders and later established themselves in rewarding and influential careers.

Blank led the award presentation for Jack Welch and Suzy Welch accepted the award on his behalf since he had recent back surgery and could not join in the festivities.  She shared poignant tales of how stuttering formed Jack’s character and taught him a valuable lesson to “be authentic and people will want to be around you.”

Dean John Farmer, Senior VP and General Counsel of Rutgers University and principal author of the 9/11 Commission’s final report, introduced the award to Jes Staley, a lifelong friend.  The audience included longtime AIS board member Sir Harold Evans, Fox News Channel’s John Stossel, communications guru Michael Sheehan and his wife Riki and Kenneth Langone.  The AIS Board of Directors, chaired by Nolan Russo, was on hand to salute the honorees.

Ellis Lankster of the New York Jets and Trumaine McBride of the New York Giants teamed up with Arthur Blank in a show of unity to tackle the public’s misperceptions about stuttering.  Blank, a previous recipient of the award, took the opportunity to jokingly caution both players not to perform too well next time they’re up against the Falcons.

AIS is a pioneer in the treatment of stuttering and is one of the few non-profit organizations in the U.S. that provides assistance to people of all ages who stutter as well as to their families.

Christofle hosted a reception last month at their Madison Avenue boutique at 846 Madison Avenue (between 69th and 70th). It was a theme event as part of their Star Table monthly series. Last month's theme, "A Wedding Celebration," featured fashion designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka, who created an installation exhibiting their wedding dress and table setting chosen from Christofle’s Albi pattern. It was a lovely, inspiring installation: flowers were from ZeZe and the table linens were from their friends’ company Leonline Linens, who create beautiful monogramed linens.

The Star Table series is an ongoing design inspiration program featuring Christofle tablescapes designed and set by celebrity designers and introduced with a unique special event each month. This month's theme stars interior designer Thom Filicia's "Summer Fete."

This year 26 schools have been chosen for grant awards. Proceeds from the event will go towards updating security systems at St. Brendan School and Santa Maria School in the Bronx and Sacred Heart of Jesus School in Manhattan and will benefit Project YESS and their grants for inner-city elementary schools within the Archdiocese of New York in need of capital improvements and repairs. The repairs range from installing improved lighting, to fixing broken windows and upgrading security systems. The grants ensure that the schools can provide a safe, nurturing environment for students as well as to help increase enrollment. Since 1998 Project YESS has provided over $4.2 million to schools for over 250 projects.

Inner-City Scholarship Fund was founded in 1971 by the late Terence Cardinal Cooke and a group of prominent executives of many religious beliefs. Inner-City provides tuition assistance to over 7,500 students (92% minority and 33% non-Catholic) in 79 inner-city Catholic schools in Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island. An astonishing 98% percent of seniors attending inner-city Catholic high schools graduate, and 96% pursue college at some of the finest universities in the nation.

Nicole Miller said, “I am honored to have been asked to launch this event that supports the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation. It is through research that an end to this dreaded disease will be realized. I am delighted to support such a worthy cause.”

The luncheon was the first event of its kind to raise funding for the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation. “We are honored that Nicole Miller accepted our invitation to be the first celebrated fashion designer to launch the event.  Not only will her support draw attention to our cause, it will raise the much needed funding for our cancer research programs,” said Dr. Samuel Waxman, Founder and CEO of the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation. 

“Support for charities and foundations has been dramatically cut by the Federal Government.  Therefore it has been left to philanthropic organizations to find private resources and creative ways to sustain the work of their institutions,” points out Dr. Waxman.  “We anticipate ‘Ladies Who Lunch for a Cure’ will be one of many such events in the coming years to augment the funding efforts,” he adds.

A raffle featuring items such as dinner at Aretzky’s Patroon, Arlotta Cashmere robe and slippers, Botkier Handbag, Brooks Brothers leather attaché, Dolce & Gabbana clutch from Collette, award-winning wines from Palm Bay and a unique necklace from Marlene Brown Fine Jewelry provided additional excitement to the event.  The event’s contemporary luncheon was catered by renowned Restaurant Associates.

Leonardo DiCaprio opened the evening with an impassioned speech about the Foundation’s work and stated, “Today we stand at the 11th Hour – facing a tipping point of environmental crises unprecedented in human history.  Not since the age of the dinosaurs have so many species of plants and animals become extinct in such a short period of time. We must now make an effort to protect the rich biodiversity that could allow nature to eventually recover. The good news is there are solutions to these massive problems. Efforts like tonight will start addressing them.“

DiCaprio proceeded to open the live auction with his own Harley-Davidson Motorcycle signed by Martin Scorsese, Robert DeNiro and himself.

C. Hugh Hildesley of Sotheby’s conducted the Gala Live Auction. The top-earning auction item of the evening was a miniature model of Young America by Donald McNarry. Other live-auction items included a fully restored 1957 VW Beetle Coupe, a stay in a WIMCO oceanside villa in St. Barth’s during the St. Barth’s Bucket regatta, and an extraordinary diamond encrusted cuff bracelet from famous Italian jewelry designer Pomellato. Gala guests were also enthusiastic donors in a reverse auction for equipment, tools and technology --- raising over $200,000 --- thus ensuring that students continue to have access to the state-of-the art equipment that is critical to their IYRS learning experience.  The rare Abeking & Rasmussen Beetle Cat raffle was won by Rebecca Allen.  Ms. Allen was inspired to enter the raffle by her father – he grew up sailing a Beetle Cat he won through a lottery, appropriately named WINDFALL.

The highlight of the evening was a cool Texan charmed performance given by Lyle Lovett & His Band. Lovett's inimitable way with a melody and lyrics made for a magical experience. The IYRS Gala crowd was on Lyle’s side and cheered each song enthusiastically as they did the two encores, including the setting appropriate “If I Had a Boat."

Under brilliant skies and with a soft breeze unfurling the flag of the Sovereign Order of the Knights of Malta, the philanthropic set from the East End, Greenwich, Palm Beach, Miami, Greenwich  converged at the landmark Rogers Mansion home to the Southampton Historical Society on Friday July 18th for the inaugural Legacy of Hope Sunset cocktail reception. The occasion was the first ever Knights of Malta fundraising event in the Hamptons to benefit the organization's relief agency Malteser International at an elegant sunset cocktail reception on the mansion's sprawling lawn.

The Order of Malta, the world’s oldest Christian charity founded in Jerusalem over 900 years ago, opened the first American branch of its humanitarian relief agency Malteser International last November. In 2013, Malteser International helped around 10 million people in 26 countries, delivering over $60 million in aid. The agency has provided emergency relief and recovery aid for nearly 60 years worldwide, responding to major crises such as the 2004 Asian Tsunami, the 2010 Haiti earthquake, Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and more recently, Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines and the ongoing Syrian crisis. Malteser International helps the vulnerable and marginalized lead a healthy life with dignity, without distinction of religion, race or political persuasion.

It was a boot-stomping, wolf-whistling, sing-Ophelia-at-the-top-of-your-lungs-good time earlier this summer at a benefit concert for the Jay Heritage Center, where 200 guests in blue jeans and wildflowered frocks defied damp skies to get their dose of "Poor Old Shine." The evening was dedicated to raising funds towards continued restoration of the gardens and meadow of the landmark Jay Estate in Rye, New York.

Dubbed "Best New Artist of 2013" by New York Times writer, David Vecsey, the band of 5 young Americana musicians brewed up a playlist of pitch perfect rock, folk and roots influenced harmonies. They got the crowd singing along to their home hewn lyrics in songs like "Weeds or Wildflowers" and "Right Now" while also giving new spins to old standards from The Band.

Perched on hay bales around the stage, guests were equally dazzled by the visual artistry of the group; the deft fingers of Chris Freeman, Max Shakun, Antonio Alcorn, Harrison Goodale and Erik Hischmann coaxed the most rapturous music out of antique saws, a 19th century pump organ, banjos, mandolins, vibraphones, drums and bass. By the second set people were dancing on the ochre brick floor and singing along to the "Hurry All Around" and the boisterous "Hang Me, Oh Hang Me." The band closed out an already memorable night with every member singing a soulful stanza of "Goodnight Irene." 

The debut event was co-chaired by Annie Teillon, Lisa King, Louise Sumner and Meghann Kelly. Together with volunteers from JHC's Preservationists they made the unique venue - a 1907 Carriage House - positively glow with cascades of twinkling lights and bouquets of yellow daffodils in mason jars. Sponsors of the event were the Wine Cellar and Yonkers Brewery.

Last Saturday night in Water Mill, the Byrd Hoffman Water Mill Foundation celebrated its 21st Annual Summer Benefit – One Thousand Nights and One Night: Sleepless Nights of Sheherazadeat The Watermill Center.  This benefit, which thanks to the American arts and culture impresario Robert Wilson is always without question, the most spectacular social event of the Hamptons summer season. There are others just populated with supporters but the Wilson touch separates it from all others.

Not surprisingly, the evening raised a record setting $2.2 million to support the Center’s International Summer Arts Program and the year-round Artist Residency and Education Programs, providing young and emerging artists a unique opportunity to develop their work. Mr. Wilson may also be the most spectacular fund-raiser of the arts and culture crowd who carry the big checkbooks.

His words about it:“In terms of what we do at Watermill, I am proudest when we showcase work that has never been seen in the United States, together with the work of young artists. I am grateful for the unparalleled support we receive each year to continue to provide a creative environment for artists to explore new idea.”

Honoring international art patron Shaikha Paula Al-Sabah, the evening featured new work by 100 artists from 30 countries; the US premiere of Portraits of Lady Gaga by Robert Wilson; and a highlight performance of SISYPHUS byacclaimed experimental theatre director, visual artist and choreographer, Dimitris Papaioannou.

Almost 1400 international curators, collectors, artists and benefactors roamed the Center’s 8 acres to experience 27-site specific installations and performances interspersed amongst outdoor sculptures and artifacts including Baboo Liao and Gintare Minelgaite’s1001 Nights in America, a whimsical, satirical look at American home life.

At the entrance to the dinner tent, Rolls Royce -- quintessential symbol of elegance and luxury of the Automotive Age --   displayed a Phantom Drophead Coupe convertible (yours for only $475,000 – and I can assure you there were a good number of guests who could write out a check for it on the spot).

Eric Parnes, whose work, Gérôme's Helmets continued, inspired the evening’s dress code “Bazaar Chic”. Wilson enlightened guests that the theme referenced the honoree, a senior member of the Kuwaiti royal family - Shaikha Paula Al-Sabah -- and because as he announced for the first time, the Paris Opera has commissioned him and Phillip Glass to produce a new opera - The Palace of Arabian Nights. 
The highlight of the dinner was the live auction conducted by veteran auctioneer Simon de Pury, which together with the online auction previewed and hosted by Artsy, raised $1.2 million. De Pury, the auctioneer’s auctioneer added to the drama.  Among the notable lots in the live auction, were two Portraits of Lady Gaga by Robert Wilson influenced by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres’ portrait of Mademoiselle Caroline Rivière and Jacques-Louis David’s famed painting, The Death of Marat, exhibited at the Louvre last year, as well as works by Frank Gehry, Anish Kapoor, Anselm Kiefer, Emilia and Ilya Kabakov, and an unsolicited, anonymous donation of $100,000 for a commissioned work by Robert Wilson.

Country life in Fitch’s Corner. The horse farm of Fernanda Kellogg and Kirk Henckels in Millbrook, was the location for the Fitch's Corner Horse Trials, the regional event that is a favorite for high performance riders.  Four former Olympians -- Bruce Davidson, Phillip Dutton, Boyd Martin and Will Coleman, brought their younger horses to compete for the Tiffany & Co. awards.

The theme for the social events was the Chinese Year of the Horse. Co-Chairmen, Darren Henault and Nancy Henze created for the annual Blue Jean Ball a Chinese decor and a Chinese banquet for the 600 guests.  DJ Flo, up from New York City, cranked up the music as guests danced under the canvas lighted by hundreds of melon and raspberry colored lanterns.  Fernanda Gilligan, daughter of the hosts, was celebrating her engagement to architect Adrian Jess of London -- an October wedding is planned in Northern Ireland.
