Highland Fling, the Bruce Museum’s 28th annual Renaissance Ball, took the oldest of the traditional dances of Scotland as its inspiration, and was a nod to the heritage of the Museum’s founder Robert Moffat Bruce.
Thanks to the inspiration of co-chairs Patricia Chadwick and Kathy Georgas, and the vision of Décor Committee co-chairs Carolyn Dempsey of Carolyn Dempsey Designs and Linda Ruderman of Linda Ruderman Designs, the nearly 330 guests at the June 6th event enjoyed a special evening to support the Bruce Museum.
With beautiful, custom-designed tables, ambient lighting and a contemporary Scottish vibe, guests were transported to a land of kilts, tartan and bagpipes.
Leora and Steven Levy were honored for their exemplary and long-standing dedication to the Museum. There was an active live auction that included a stunning Bulgari necklace, stays at private homes on Kauai, St. Barts and in South Africa, an exclusive vacation at Skibo Castle and a train ride through the Scottish Highlands. C. Hugh Hildesley of Sotheby’s led the live auction and paddle raise. Guests danced the night away with the ever-popular Hank Lane Music. Proceeds raised from the Renaissance Ball benefit art and science education initiatives at the Bruce Museum.

Jenkins III, MD, Linda Ruderman Interiors, Greenwich Magazine/Moffly Media, Northern Trust, Smith Party Rentals, Sotheby’s, Stamford Tent & Event Services, Susan E.
