This past Thursday, The New York Academy of Art hosted its annual Summer Drawing Party, and as ever, 'twas a scenic soirée filled to the brim with stylish Hamptonites ready to try their hand at learning the basics of Drawing 101. 

Hosts Brooke Shields and Chris Henchy, Alissa Friedman and Glenn Petry, Colleen Bashaw and Bruce Bohuny, Simon Doonan and Jonathan Adler, and Curtis Bashaw were joined by a flock of art-lovers and NYAA supporters at The Pridwin on Shelter Island for the en plain air affair. 

The newly reopened hotel, fully stocked with sponsor of the evening Mascot, served as the perfect setting for a sunset drawing session.
