The Hobby Center Takes on a Latin Flavor in a High-Energy Night
Salsa Dancing for a Cause
By Shelby Hodge //
What: Houston Night for Niños
Where: Hobby Center for the Performing Arts
PC Moment: The soaring foyer of the Hobby Center took on a Latin flavor when some 150 altruistic souls gathered to raise funds for Fabretto children’s foundation, the international nonprofit that supports education and nutrition programs for underprivileged youth in Nicaragua. Supporters were an international mix representing the various nationalities of Houston’s citizenry.
Dena and Chris Winkler chaired the evening the featured high-energy dancing thanks to the beats of Houston Salsa Band and fuel for the partying provided by Cordúa Catering. Continuing the Latin mood were auction items that included a collection of hand-selected sipping rums from the best distilleries of Latin America and a gentleman’s night out at Lucho, where activities include a private tequila tasting, custom shirt fitting and wardrobe consultation.
Who: Fabretto CEO Kevin Marrinaci, Lucho owner Hector Villarreal, Blanca Vega, Tracy and Harry Faulkner, Allison DeCruz, Chrissy Strasser, Lulu Tan, Hugh Zhang, Elisa Esteban, Nadia and John Lauterbach, Renee and Steve Ash, Todd Chen and Christina Nalder.
