African Safari met New York society at
Safari at Sunset, the glamorous
annual spring party hosted by the
Associates Committee of The Society of
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
Over 300 guests took a walk on the wild side
as Guastavino’s was transformed into a
luscious “Out of Africa” setting for a
festive evening of outdoor cocktails, dinner
and dancing sponsored by Ports 1961
and Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry.
The evening’s highlight was an exciting live
auction by Sotheby’s auctioneer Eliza
Osborne, including a $25,000 wardrobe from
Ports 1961 and a $10,000 pair of exquisite
“heirloom chic” diamond earrings from Ivanka
Trump Fine Jewelry worn on the night by
Associates Committee Chairman, Christina
Smith. Guests danced to African beats
late into the night raising over $330,000
for the hospital’s Pediatric Department.
The evening was chaired by Amy Raiter
Dwek, Kimberly Flaster, Natalie Leeds
Leventhal, and DaraO’Hara who were all
wearing Ports 1961. Others who also broke
out their best animal prints for the evening
include:
Christina Addison, Leslie and Kevin
