TRIBECA BALL 2011

Tribeca Ball is The annual fund raising event for NYAA. It is also a part of the NY "be seen" art scene. As "Vogue UK" says :"The art party featured five floors of open studios, where the works of over 100 up-and-coming artists were on display to the assembled guests. After touring the studios, cocktails in hands, the stars sat down to dinner followed by a turn on the dance floor. It was a ball, after all... "
Among many celebrity guests, fashion icons, is my favorite: lovely Jennifer Connelly, whom I had a crush on since "Requiem for a Dream"BACK IN THE 2000's ...Well, there was Steven Martin, showing up with Eric Fishl a few days ago to give critique...

I don't know who this guy is...

I've decided not to attend this year's event, there are just too much to do right now...Who knew singing Gretel is not as easy as it sounds?? And the witch is even harder??:( Although my studio will be organized for display.

On behalf of the students at NYAA, I would like to thank you all for coming & contributing to our school. Have a good time!! And remember, you can always reserve your ticket with NYAA for the 2012 year event!
