Midnight in Paris, Nassau County Museum of Art’s 2015 Ball, will be held on Saturday, June 13 at 7 p.m. The 2015 Ball celebrates the museum’s 25th anniversary year, honoring former Nassau County Executive Thomas S. Gulotta and current Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano at the museum’s founding and today.
Through décor, French-inspired cuisine and costume, Midnight in Paris is designed to evoke the glamour and romance of the fabled city of lights.
The ball, one of the most eagerly anticipated events of the Long Island social season, is the museum’s major annual fundraiser, providing an important component of the museum’s operating budget, offering support for an ambitious schedule of exhibitions and stimulating educational programs for adults, students, families, special-needs individuals and school groups.
Midnight in Paris will be held at museum’s historic Gold Coast mansion, which along with extensive gardens and grounds constitutes the former Frick Estate.
Guests will dance to the music of the Alex Donner Orchestra, and will bid for exciting auction prizes including artwork, jewelry, fine dining and unique event experiences. The ball also features a raffle for a pair of sapphire and diamond earrings donated by Ambalu Jewelers.
