The past weekend was host to a bevy of events presented by the American Friends of Blérancourt, a non–profit that supports the expansion and gardens of the Franco‐American Museum, Chateau de Blérancourt in Picardy, France, founded by Anne Morgan, daughter of J.P. Morgan. Late Saturday afternoon, November 10th, high atop the Trump World Tower and overlooking the United Nations, Francine du Plessix Gray, author of “The Queen’s Lover,” read excerpts from her book and signed copies in the private home of art collectors Robin Cofer and Dominick D’Alleva. Guests included Baroness Bernard d’Anglejan‐Chatillon, Founder of the American Friends of Blerancourt, Eugenie Anglès, President of AFB, Sonja Tremont Morgan, Miles Morgan, and Mary Jane Pool.
On Sunday November 11th, a private social at the residence of the acclaimed interior designer Juan Pablo Molyneux, acknowledged the benefactors and patrons of the gala. Guests were privy to a tour of this exquisitely designed home.
