Vizcaya sparkled at its 59th Annual Ball, which took place on Saturday, November 21. Guests walked down the 200-foot red carpet to the black-tie event, themed “A Return to the Gilded Age and All that Glitters.” The evening’s festivities included a stylish cocktail reception with a seafood bar and music by the Florida Youth Orchestra; catering by Thierry Catering; entertainment by The Steve Chase Band; and a sensational on-line silent auction.

Guests danced into the night and watched fireworks along Biscayne Bay. Among the guests were Susan and Anthony Abraham, Jr., Pearl Baker-Katz, Trish and Dan Bell, Terry Buoniconti, Laurie Evans, Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez, Vizcaya Museum and Gardens Trust Chairman Ray MaGhee, Aislyn and Scott McDonald, M.D., Bronwyn Miller, Miami-Dade County Commission Chairman Jean Monestime, Laura and Juan Munilla, Chris Pederson, Migna Sanchez-Llorens, Diane Sepler, among others.

Murphy, Alexa Wolman, and Suzy Buckley Woodward, with Swanee DiMare serving as Honorary Chair. Proceeds support the protection and preservation of Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.
