Aspen
Art Museum Hosts Blockbuster Benefit
The
Aspen Art Museum closed its yearlong 25th anniversary celebration
with a blockbuster of a benefit, far outpacing any previous fundraiser.
The Dennis Basso Freestyle presented by Pierre/Famille garnered
more than $520,000 in support of the art museum.
Celebrities
Katie Couric, Jill St. John, Robert Wagner, and Lauralee Bell
Martin were among more than 600 guests who gathered in the elegant
ballroom of The St. Regis Aspen to support the art museum. Dominico
de Sole, former CEO of Gucci, and designer Nicole Miller were
also there to see Dennis Basso's most recent fashion line and
jewels by Pierre/Famille at Aspen's fashion show of the year.
Barely
clothed water nymphs greeted guests as they arrived to sip Moët
& Chandon champagne and savor Tsar Nicoulai caviar, underwritten
this year by WestStar Bank.
