Bal Harbour, FL – March 31, 2016 – John Varvatos hosted a special shopping evening at the John Varvatos Bal Harbour store in Miami to benefit The Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami (ICA Miami), an organization dedicated to promoting the work of contemporary artists, and to the exchange of art and ideas throughout the Miami region and internationally. The brand assembled a committee of celebrated local personalities, including Jack Benmeleh, David Herzberg, Alex Kushner, Emmett Moore and Daniel W. Schwartz, to co-host the event and help and encourage guests to shop in support of the not-for-profit organization. A special work of art created by artist Emmett Moore entitled “Atlas Table” was displayed and featured during the event. As guests mingled and shopped, DJ Andrés kept the energy high and atmosphere fun and festive with a well curated, high style music set.
