A select group of New York alumni met for an unusual event on June 27 in an apartment /jewelry showroom close to fifth avenue and 31st street.
Their “task” was to select the best among 8 bottles of Italian wine from all over this beautiful country while choosing among a wide array of design jewelry on display in the showroom – or helping to choose since there was predominantly jewelry for women on sale. The group was joined by the designers of the jewelry. Needless to say it took us a while to determine which ones were the best of the wines and – as far as our female alumnae were concerned – to settle on the pieces of jewelry to take home with. It was another fun event, soon to be followed by a cultural get-together in the New York art scene.
