BB&N in NYC Reception
Thursday, February 25th, 2010

BB&N in NYC Reception On the evening of February 25, a great group of alums braved an unusual snow storm in New York City to attend the annual BB&N in NYC Reception. The evening's program focused on the celebration of the lifelong impact of the BB&N experience and education in the Arts. The discussion was lead by Upper School Painting and Drawing faculty John Norton. Six alumni/ae - Paul Bellantoni '85, Scott Belsky '98, Caroline Kotter '08, Gia Marotta '02, Rachel Platten '99 and Katherine Thorpe '00 - spoke about their professional careers in the arts field and how BB&N helped to develop and shape their career path. As was reiterated by many panelists, BB&N helped to give each of them the many skills and the passion necessary for success in the art world.
