The event began Monday, March 16 and will run until Friday March 20.

Van Cleef & Arpels has been maintaining a relationship among different artists this year.

For instance, the jewelry house returned as a sponsor for the School of American Ballet’s 2015 Winter Ball for the eighth consecutive year.

Held on March 9 at Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Center, the event was a black tie dinner and dance, including a special performance by advanced students in the program. Having a presence at this ball helped Van Cleef & Arpels reach an approximate group of 500 guests, who include corporate and cultural leaders, many of whom are likely affluent individuals (see story).
