Photos: 'Take Back the Night' Fundraiser

The inaugural benefit for the Take Back The Night Foundation took place on January 11 at The Saturday Club in Wayne.

Guests and VIPs kicked off a shiny new year and got warm amid the glitter and melting ice sculptures. Guests came from the Main Line, Philadelphia and beyond to view the stars at the Thaw Out the Night Cocktail Party and Benefit.

The Take Back The Night Foundation is a national organization that works to stop sexual violence in all forms.

At the fundraiser, guests watched Peter Slavin of "Fear No Ice." Slavin began with a 1,000 pound block of ice, and danced amidst flying ice shavings to a beat where it was impossible for the guests to not dance along to the beat.

The finished product was a unique visual masterpiece of ice carved into the Take Back The Night logo amidst fire flames of ice.

As the guests arrived they were greeted with a demitasse cup of spiced cider at the standing room only event.

New Year’s resolutions were set as everyone joined in the excitement while  bidding on an array of auction treats including spa treatments, gym memberships, an autographed Eagles football and jersey, a year of in-home massages, a bottle of French First Growth Bordeaux, tickets to Philly sporting events, and many more. 

All proceeds will benefit the Take Back The Night Foundation in supporting victims of abuse and violence.
