East Side House Settlement and Sotheby’s hosted a kick-off party for the Young Collectors Night at the Winter Antiques Show. More than 80 partook of the cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in Sotheby’s 8th floor gallery to honor and thank the Young Collectors Night Vice Chairs and Benefit Committee.
Guests were welcomed by Co-Chairs Emily Israel and Courtney Booth, and Executive Director of East Side House, John Sanchez. The YCN Vice Chairs are Valerie and Brad Aston, Alexandra Buckley Voris, Stephanie and Frederick Clark, Kipton Cronkite, Cristin DeVeer, Elizabeth Meigher, Billy Nacey, Anika Yael Natori, Allyson and Chris Pachios, Tatiana G. P. Perkin, Marie Rentschler, and Caroline Rowley.
Proceeds from this glamorous evening benefit East Side House Settlement, a leading social service agency that serves the Mott Haven section of the South Bronx, within the poorest Congressional district in the United States. The focus of the East Side House Settlement is education and technology training as gateways out of poverty.
