If you haven’t already heard of party restaurant Maison Close thanks to the TikTok crew, no doubt you have now.

The Museum of Arts and Design’s ‘MAD About Jewelry’ opening benefit

Calling all New Yorkers. The world’s most interesting and innovative jewelry of the moment is currently on display—and up for grabs!—at the Museum of Arts and Design’s annual MAD About Jewelry show and sale. The beloved event, which spotlights 50 homegrown and international makers, is open (and free) to the public until April 29. Now in its 23rd year, and a vital endeavor to support the Museum’s exhibits and programing, the event kicked off with an opening benefit which honored the MAD About Jewelry 2023 Awards recipients. Over an intimate dinner hosted at the Museum’s Robert restaurant, industry guests and Museum executives celebrated Alexis Bittar, founder of the eponymous luxury jewelry and accessories brand; Linda Fargo, senior vice president of fashion and store presentation at Bergdorf Goodman; and Sam Broekema, editor-in-chief of Only Natural Diamonds, the digital editorial platform powered by the Natural Diamond Council. On the night, two emerging jewelry artists, Miki Asai and Steven KP, were also invited to have their work included in the Museum’s permanent collection. Guests in attendance included Museum leadership such as Michele Cohen, Chair of the Board of Trustees; Bryna Pomp, Director, MAD About Jewelry; Tim Rodgers, Nanette L. Laitman Director; and Elissa Auther, Deputy Director of Curatorial Affairs and the William and Mildred Lasdon Chief Curator. They were joined on the evening by Ana Khouri, Beau McCall and Peter “Souleo” Wright, Fern Mallis, Judy Geib, Levi Higgs, Lilah Ramzi, Lutfi Janania, Lynn Yaeger, Nikos Koulis, Nina Tiari, Rickie de Sole, and Zani Gugelmann.
