Having just returned from one of my favorite events of the year—the New York Art Producer party I co-host annually with Heather Elder—I am struck with an awe-inspiring appreciation for this community. There were some Art Producers with whom I’ve worked my entire career, some who are just starting their careers in Art Production, and even a few AP’s I’ve worked with but had never previously met.

To have them all gathered together in the now familiar Ace Hotel Lobby swapping stories, camaraderie and friendship was, in a word, magical. And to get to do this all with my best friend and to be so fortunate to have Vanessa McGarry supporting us both in New York? How lucky can we be! I was also so excited to have Quinci join us once again this year after a few years staying back while her kids were younger (we missed you Lauranne). I think the I heart New York ad campaign slogan from the 70’s perfectly sums up my feelings towards this community, but the photos tell the best story. Until next time NYC.
