Last month, organizers bathed the National Museum of Dance in lavender-hued light for the fifth annual Purple Tie Affair to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and Nick’s Fight to be Healed Foundation for pediatric cancer. Some 300 guests clad in purple took to the dance floor for this year’s mid-winter “Celebration of Life.”
This year’s special honorees were six-year-old Isabella Caruso and seven-year-old Evan Fronk, who both recently finished treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
