Edible Schoolyard NYC, a nonprofit that provides school gardens and kitchen classrooms to underserved New York public schools, hosted its fifth annual spring benefit on April 24 at Metropolitan West. The event, designed by Van Wyck & Van Wyck, featured plant decor such as vines that covered the venue ceiling and pillars.
The annual Joffrey Bala Spring Gala took place April 21 at Roosevelt University and the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago. In the latter venue's Red Lacquer room, David Beahm Experiences installed a bar backdrop of frames decorated with bouquets of various flowers. Frost provided lighting at the event.
For a spring-inspired cocktail idea, Whisler’s in Austin, Texas, offers the Queen Bee, a blend of gin, lemon, honey, and lavender bitters, all garnished with a sprinkle of fresh bee pollen.
For a colorful, floral photo setup idea, PopSugar's Coachella hub at the Colony Palms hotel in Palm Springs featured a flower-covered swing in front of sponsor Ulta's logo. Agenc produced the event.
