More from Palm Beach

The place cards at Club Colette for the Connoisseur's Dinner.

Palm Beach, America’s International Fine Art & Antique Fair preview opening night on Thursday, known as the Vernissage, brought about 100 dealers from America and Europe as well as collectors and visitors from all over America as well as the social contingent from New York. The evening, which began at the luxurious Palm Beach Convention Center on Okechobee Boulevard in West Palm benefited the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties’ MOSAIC FUND.

The fair which began more than a decade ago, like its host Palm Beach, has grown into an authentic international event in the world of art and antiques.

Viscount and Viscountess Rothermere were the international honorary chairs. Mr. and Mrs. S. Christopher Meigher III, Mrs. William H. Pitt and Thomas C. Quick were honorary co-chairs. Audrey (Mrs. Martin) Gruss was gala chair.

After the Vernissage more than a hundred of the evening’s patrons and supporters gathered at the popular Club Colette on Peruvian Avenue in Palm Beach for a dinner celebrating the event's fundraising success. The following are more photos of the evening guests at the fair and at the Club Colette dinner.
