Honoring Dr. Juan Carlos Castilla, one of the region’s truly great leaders in conservation and Dr. Steven E. Sanderson, President and CEO of the Wildlife Conservation Society.

 World-renowned Event Designer and best-selling author Preston Bailey.

 

                          Gala 2012: The Coasts of Patagonia is a celebration of WCS’s commitment to conserving the globally significant natural wealth along the coasts of Chile and Argentina.  The evening will capture the pristine beauty of this area, while raising awareness and building support to ensure its future.  The gala will highlight WCS’s decades-long commitment to the Patagonian coastline through the establishment of the Karukinka reserve, ecotourism work in Tierra del Fuego, and the WCS Sea and Sky project.  The evening’s honoree is longstanding friend of WCS, Dr. Juan Carlos Castilla, one of the region’s leaders in conservation.  WCS is also pleased to honor President and CEO Dr. Steven E. Sanderson, who will retire in July 2012. Dr. Sanderson’s tenure at WCS helped conservation efforts grow and expand into more than 65 nations.

 

The Central Park Zoo, located at 64th Street and Fifth Avenue, brings WCS’s global conservation work to life through innovative exhibits such as the Allison Maher Stern Snow Leopard and Tropic Zone Rainforest exhibits.

 

The Wildlife Conservation Society saves wildlife and wild places worldwide.  We do so through science, global conservation, education and the management of the world's largest system of urban wildlife parks, led by the flagship Bronx Zoo.  Together these activities change attitudes towards nature and help people imagine wildlife and humans living in harmony.  WCS is committed to this mission because it is essential to the integrity of life on Earth.

For Lifestyle, Beauty and Fashion

From Broadway to Soufflé, the 2011 New York Chocolate Fashion Show on November 9th, presented by Lincoln, was a spectacular kickoff to the 14thAnnual Chocolate Show held at the Metropolitan Pavilion through Sunday Nov 13th. Inspired by this year’s Broadway Musicals theme, teams of celebrated pastry chefs and award winning costume designers created outfits and accessories made of artisan chocolates. Participants included “Top Chef: Just Desserts” Zac Young, One if By Land’s Dean Anderson, “Project Runway’s” Elisa Jiminez and many more culinary and fashion icons. Their whimsical and elaborate cocoa dresses were showcased through Broadway classics such as The Lion King, Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables to new hits like Follies, The Addams Family and Ch’inglish. Customary to any theatre experience on The Great White Way, the show opened with the “Playbill” dress and closed with standing ovations to the chefs and designers who joined the models on stage. Martin Howard (aka Chocolatina) with Broadway costume designer Michael Plosky ‘s Broadway Playbill number was a big huge hit and the chocolate truffles that they threw out to the audience tasted so chocolaty delicious and simply melted in mouths with great delight! Below are photos taken straight from the runway of the Chocolate Fashion show on November 9, 2011.
