NMWA Spring Gala!

We headed to the National Museum of Women in the Arts for its annual Spring Gala. We apologize for the photo quality; we weren't allowed to use flash. We snapped gala chair Shahin Mafi with Monaco's Ambassador Maguy Maccario Doyle and NMWA director Susan Fisher Sterling.

Spring Gala celebrates the museum’s exhibition She Who Tells a Story: Women Photographers from Iran and the Arab World. Here, The Kreeger Museum's Ineke Kreeger, arts patron Annie Totah, and Phillips Collection director Dorothy Kosinski.

A cocktail reception and silent auction were on the second and third floors of the museum among its special exhibit and permanent collection. Here, former National Press Club president Myron Belkind, embassy liaison Jan Du Plain, and Swiss Ambassador Martin Dahinden.

Following the reception, guests headed downstairs for a lavish three-course dinner and dancing. Here, NMWA patrons Gilan Corn, Geryl Pearl, and Charlotte Buxton.

DC lawyer Michael Buxton joins arts patrons Sally and Chris Jones.

Travis Holler & Alfredo Flores contributed to this issue.
