On Wednesday June 8th, Taste of Summer brought together more than 800 guests under the stars in Central Park for a distinctive kickoff to summer in New York City. This event featured culinary tastings prepared by celebrated restaurants, a luxury-filled silent auction and music by one of the city’s hottest DJs. Held at the iconic Bethesda Terrace, this annual benefit for Central Park Conservancy brings together visionaries in support of the Conservancy's mission to restore and maintain Central Park.
