'Up, Up and Away'

Patrons of the Prado 2008

- Benefiting the San Diego Museum of Art, the Museum of Photographic Arts, and the San Diego Museum of Man

 

The Patrons of the Prado held a very colorful gala July 12th, 2008 at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park. Guests arrived in colorful attire commensurate with the theme, 'Up, Up and Away.'

Among the vibrant mix were Gala Chair Elisabeth Bergan in a pretty orange and strapless Angel Sanchez, Jeanne Jones in Zandra Rhodes, Virginia Monday in a sophistocated navy blue, no doubt Chanel, Eloisa Haudenschild in vintage Valentino, Judy Wheatley in a majestic lion themed one shoulder gown by Jordan Art Couture, and Jeanne Larson wore some very significant crimson tourmaline jewels. From the The Collector Fine Jewelry of course.

Guests first enjoyed fine cocktails and appetizers mixed with lively conversation on a perfect San Diego summer evening, with a slight breeze.

And all for great causes. This year, The Patrons of the Prado selected the San Diego Museum of Man, the Museum of Photographic Arts, and the San Diego Museum of Art as their beneficiaries. Over $1.3 million has been raised since 1997 for the Patrons of the Prado's mission," to raise moneys for the benefit of the arts organizations and museums on the Prado of Balboa Park."

And raise monies guests did while having quite a nice time.

Dinner was orchestrated by the Hyatt Regency La Jolla's talented team led by Executive Chef Sebastien Layen, Robert Armstrong, and Don Caulfield. Guests tucked into a dinner menu of chilled green pea soup with smoked duck julienne and creme fraiche, roasted rack of lamb with green olive au jus, arugula salad with dried cherries and Comte cheese and a decadent dessert of cappuccino pot de creme with pistachio biscotti and fresh berries. Fine wines by Chimney Rock winery and Stags Leap were served.

Jim Lennox, that's the party planner Jim Lennox, and his Pacific Events team provided the ballon embellished light and breezy setting.

And guests really had to save up their energy. The Heroes were the dance band which meant no one stayed in their seats. Tom Blair provided eloquent verbage as Master of Ceremonies.

Also there were supporting Balboa museums and the arts were Claire Anderson, Joan Bowes and Larry Davis, Suzanne and Tim Bacino, Tiffany and Jim Mahoney, Lauren and Derrick Cartwright, Clinton Walters, Brenda Marsh-Rebello and John Rebello, Kathleen and Ned Buoymaster, Lou Spisto, Lola and Walter Green, Linda and Don Swortwood, Tanya and Charles Brandes, Margaret and Dr. Michael Grossman, Lynne and Steve Wheeler, Cindy and Tom Goodman, Betty and Dr. Leonard Kornreich, Fiona Tudor, Ellen and Tim Zinn, Tanya and Charles Brandes, and Honorary Chairwoman, Nancy Roon and her son Chris Roon.
