A Night of Dancing and Celebration at Dalton’s Benefit 2023
Thanks to the generosity of about 725 community members who attended and supported Dalton’s Spring Benefit Let’s Dance! on Tuesday evening, April 18 at the Ziegfeld Ballroom. The proceeds totaled an impressive $642,000 from underwriters, ticket, and raffle sales.
We’re grateful to Benefit Chairs Karen Lee, Holly Speyer Lipton ’91, and Arielle Tepper ’90 for their help in making this event a wonderful night to remember! Hats off to Artistic Director & Producer Randi Sloan for her creative programming. Our appreciation to Melanie Kefalidis Kantor ’99 and Laura Savino Onghena for coordinating the clever First Program student art project and centerpieces made from cassette tapes which reflected the evening’s dance and music theme.
The entertainment was superlative – from an 11-piece Salsa Band to the high school singing group Sweet ’n Low, along with talented student dancers and instrumentalists. We aimed to make Head of School José M. De Jesús’s first Dalton Benefit a fun evening of celebration and engagement – and we’re happy to report that we most definitely succeeded!
