Note on the White Dinner

The Diner En Blanc was just beautiful- a medley of people and persuasions of all different ilks who knew how to come in style and have a raucously good time.  The sunset's magic crescendoed with music by The Russet Trio (thank you Aldo, Peter and Seth!), and then we were graced by the full moon's rising.  We look forward to next year's- whatever color we'll be by then......:)

from a caravan guest:

I almost forgot I was in the Berkshires.... music, dance, rose-scented ice cream, enough color and texture to seduce my imagination out of its slumber. I LOVED IT!!!
A Bohemian Caravan in the Berkshires.  A colorful mirage from another time and place in this very time and place!  An invitation to communal adventure.  Sparks one's spirits and drew out the sequins in my attire !  A wonderful mix of ages, spiced with love and intention by the hosts,  and as always, a sublime attention to detail.  
The Caravan was truly a magical incarnation.  We created a tent, had an amazing feast, and dance party with the help of over 20 people donating rugs, fabrics, cushions, food, time, & love.  We regret not having any pictures of Gabriel's ice cream churning art project (see www.cargocollective.com/gabrieladams) with Persian- inspired rose petal ice cream and apple-mint sorbet, or of the Glass Botom Brewery Boy's 4 beer selection on tap (glassbottonbrewery@gmail.com), or of all the lovely people in costume dancing to the Turkish/Indian Sufi-laced techo & break-beat music mixed and dubbed on the spot by Nur Habib Tiven (check out http://soundcloud.com/nurhabib1.)  Nevertheless we do have some pics from the evening.......
