Part II.... This is a recap of some memorable Philadelphia Magazine parties. One or two fun photos from each party that we promoted.

The Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was the very worthy recipient of funds raised by a benefit designer show house, fetchingly named the DogHaus.
