The Dallas Museum of Art's largest annual fundraising event, the Beaux
Arts Ball was recreated as The Art Ball under the leadership of Chairman
and Board of Trustee member Sharon Young, Jennifer
Eagle and event designer Todd Fiscus.
Greeting
guests at the entrance of the Dallas Museum of Art was a huge white
tent outfitted with a blue/green lit dance floor with strands of crystal
lights strewn across the ceiling. Dubbed The Aqua Club, sponsored by
Angie Barrett, this scene gave hints about
the exciting party to come. Later on, servers would pour Wine &
Spirits sponsor Moet & Chandon champagne
as party goers danced the hours away to the hot music of Tito
Puente, Jr. and Sauce long into the night. Everyone had such
a wonderful time, Sharon Young, Chairman,
gave the OK to keep the party going until 1:30 a.m.

Inspired
by the February 2006 exhibition, Lords of Creation: The Origins of Sacred
Maya Kingship, this year's Ball, Gods and Kings, took guests to a modern
Maya civilization fit for a divine king.They experienced a mélange
of fantastic food and had a chance to bid on an array of tantalizing
items from the live and luxury auctions.
