Playground Partners, a program of the Women’s Committee of the Central Park Conservancy, kicked-off the year’s series of signature fundraising events by hosting their annual Winter Luncheon. The event, with generous support by Presenting Sponsor Harry Winston, Inc., raised $330,000 to maintain Central Park’s 21 playgrounds: essential, safe, and accessible areas of imaginative play for the children and families of New York City.

Attendees gathered at the Mandarin Oriental, where the luncheon featured a lively conversation between comedian and author, Jenny Mollen and motivational speaker Gabby Bernstein.

Guests including Katherine Gage Boulud, Kate Davis, Ainsley Earhardt, Gillian Hearst, Tracey Huff, Sharon Jacob, Amie James, Alexia Leuschen, Crystal McCrary, Gillian Miniter, Margo M. Nederlander, Barbara H. Scott, Gigi Stone Woods and more.
