No matter what time of day, Las Vegas is all about fun.

TableArt had a blast last weekend at URBN working
with Leslie Rosen Catering transforming
the industrial space into a glitzy Vegas themed Bar Mitzvah.

Christine Foster Photography was on location capturing
all of the details of this fabulous event.
TableArt has combined our photographs with hers
to show you the dramatic effect lighting has on day and night.

As guests entered the building, they were visually dazzled by a modern composition
of green cymbidium orchids, star fish-shaped orange mokara orchids and sumptuous,
bi-color picante orange calla lilies accented by flickering votives and floating candles.

Watch out Rat Pack – This was going to be memorable evening!

The Roulette table was used as an escort card table complete with
poker chips designed for adult place cards.
Later in the evening, the table was twice the fun with high rollers
of all age trying their luck trying to beat the odds.

Meanwhile, the kids were having a blast searching for their special message
rolled up inside a bottle located in “Treasure Island”.

Treasure maps lead the kids to
their table named after a famous Las Vegas Hotel.

 ”Skyscrapers” of  multi-colored funfetti mapped out in various color sequences
spanned the length of each table.
The effect was cool by day and smokin’ hot at night!

Sunlight streaming through the jelly-like funfett inside the glass columns placed
on top of the perforated stainless steel tables provided by URBN looked phenomenal!

A very special thanks to our friends at
URBN, Leslie Rosen Catering and Christine Foster Photography.

 TableArt was very proud to partner with URBN Outfitters Inc. and Talula’s Table
to provide flowers for the Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia‘s
“Campaign for 10,000 Children” benefit dinner held at URBN Outfitters Inc.
Saturday, September 24 2011.

 The incredible  ”Farm to Table” evening
raised over $1 million in funds for the “Campaign for 10,000 Children”.

For many families, the local farmer’s market
has become the preferred choice over the mass grocery stores.

 In honor of the  Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia‘s
“Campaign for 10,000 Children”,
the evening celebrated the “Farm to Table” movement with all the details.

Guests entered URBN‘s 543 Building to a visual field of fantastic pumpkins
decorated by children from local schools.

Later in the evening, the pumpkins were auctioned off to guests by Mayor Nutter.

The CSF Children took a field trip the The Hayne’s farm, Doe Run.
The children were then asked to draw images from their experience at the farm.
URBN employees then translated the kid’s artwork into an original piece. Interpretations ranged from textiles, china to paintings. The artwork was exhibited alongside the child’s drawing and then auctioned off to support the  Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia.

A hang tag for each item explained the URBN employees’ connection
and inspiration to each of the drawings.

As shown above, a drawing of farm animals created by a student was interpreted
by an URBN employee into this cozy set of hand sewn cable stitched farm animals.

Love this Rooster!
I was a bit disappointed that I didn’t get back to the auction table before bidding closed,
but very happy that all proceeds from the auction went directly to the
Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia.

The fabulous wood tables were built by URBN.
The tables railroaded together to create a family style dining environment for 300 guests.

In support of the “Farm to Table” theme, TableArt worked with various local farmers
to gather flowers for the evening.

 Over 500 arrangements designed in mason jars
were staged prior to being placed on guest tables.

 Cockscomb and dahlia in a spectrum of fall colors all played beautifully together.

  Simple arrangements of  thistle, sedum and gumphrena
looked gorgeous placed on the URBN cocktail tables.

There is an emerging culture of “locavore’s” that are making an effort to eat only foods grown or harvested within a 100 mile radius of where they live.

Aimee Olexy of Talula’s Garden and Talula’s Table
provided an incredible sustainable “100 Mile Menu” for guests
to enjoy complete with beer and wine pairings.

CSFPhiladelphia is a wonderful organization that currently supports 3,000 low income children with K-8th grade, four year scholarships to attend quality, low tuition schools. There are more than 200 community based schools that participate in the program. One hundred percent of every dollar donated goes directly to scholarships and the CSF National organization matches all gifts with thirty-three cents. Talented young boys and girls enjoy educational opportunities that they otherwise could not afford. For the students and their families these scholarships are truly transformational.

TableArt has been proud supporter of CSFPhiladelphia for 10 years.
We congratulate the spectacular success to the launch of the
“Campaign for 10,000 Children” .

 TableArt is very proud to partner with URBN Outfitters, Inc and Talula’s Table to support the Children’s Scholarship Fund Philadelphia‘s “Campaign for 10,000 Children”.

The benefit dinner will be held this Saturday, September 24
at URBN Outfitters, Inc. located at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.

Artisanal food is quickly becoming the emerging American Meal and locavore has become the latest buzz word used to describe someone who eats food grown or produced locally.

This  incredible night will feature a sustainable “100 Mile Menu”
designed by Aimee Olexy of Talula’s Garden and Talula’s Table.

TableArt is thrilled to provide Farm to Table arrangements
for the eventing with flowers from our local vendors.
