A Masked
Ball for Arts Therapy
Art
for Kids
Drawing a crowd:
Most of the highly creative masks worn by guests at Friday night's
Carnivale at the Ritz masked ball and casino were made by students
at the Boston Institute for Arts Therapy. It's the organization that
provides expressive arts therapy to children in need, and the carnivale
raised more than $40,000 to support its programs.
Kim and Peter Poutre of Norwell were there. Liz and Michael Coletta
of Hingham - he's with Crescent Realty Group - came to the party masked.
So did Susan Musinsky and David Krieger of Watertown - she is executive
director of the National Conference for Community and Justice and
he is a doctor with Harvard Vanguard. Gretchen Tucker-Underwood of
Boston, president of the Boston Coalistion for 100 Black Women, attended,
as did sponsors Ruth and Steven Tenofsky of Brookline and their son,
Adam. Steven Tenofsky is on the board of trustees of the Boston Institute
for Arts Therapy. Mike Dreese and John Brusger, co-owners of Newbury
Comics and both from Sudbury, brought their wives, Laura Dreese and
Ellen Brusger. Julie Crockford of Holliston, is executive director
of the Institute and she welcomed WBZ-TV anchor Joe Shortsleeve, accepting
an award for his compatriot Liz Walker, who hadn't returned yet from
covering the space launch in Florida. Donna Harris-Lewis, president
of the Reggie Lewis Foundation, and Musinsky also were honored for
their work.
Kay Asher of Lunenburg and her husband, physian Gary Asher, came with
their Lunenburg neightbors Janet and Tom Gary - he's a partner with
KPMG accounting and consulting, Gariella Goode of Boston and Dr. Anthony
Mercado of Boston were in attendance as well at the masked ball on
the night before Halloween.
