Step-and-Repeats and Arrival Walls

This year’s New Yorkers for Children fall gala had a “light the way” theme, inspired by the nonprofit’s mission to improve the lives of young people. David Stark handled the decor inside Cipriani 42nd Street for the Tuesday-night event, embellishing a photo backdrop of a forest scene with white birch trees, lush greenery, and a “path” lit by lanterns.
