Art Rocks! New York
November 21, 2008
Filed under Causes & Charity, Review
November 20th: After leaving the Sexiest Man alive party I cabbed it over to the Bowery hotel for the Art Rocks benefit. The event was held to raise funds for the new Child Life program at the Berrie Center. The Child Life Program offers therapeutic and recreational play therapy to patients and is staffed by specialists who have undergone rigorous screening and education by the Berrie Center and the Children’s Hospital of New York. The event featured artistic works from 13 artists including David Foote, Alexandra Richards, Emmett Shine, Sebastian Black, Jake Patterson.
I walked into a crowded venue packed with various people often seen out on the New York nightlife scene. The front bar was so packed I couldn’t even attempt to get to it so I made a quick dash towards the back. It was a good opportunity to catch up with friends as we nibbled on yummy hors d’oeuvres and sipped champagne. And we were all there supporting a great cause.
The clinical program of the Berrie Center now cares for more than 10,000 adults and children with diabetes from a diverse socioethnic background and includes one of the largest pediatric diabetes programs. For more information about Art Rocks! Or to make a Donation contact Ashley Chapman
