Harrow Bangkok celebrates its stunning first ever charity masked ball
Glamorous gowns, Venetian masks, ice sculptures and James Bond look-alikes graced the JW Marriott on 30th April as the Harrow Bangkok community came together for the School’s first ever charity masked ball.
An entertaining evening of glitz and intrigue was enjoyed by 260 parents, staff and alumni, complete with a Champagne reception, four-course dinner and dancing. This black tie event was an opportunity to follow the rich traditions of European masked balls – elaborate dances for the highest in society, renowned for their decadence, sumptuous costumes and dazzling masks.
The ballroom came alive for the charity auction, which helped raise an astonishing 510,000 THB for the Mobile Education Partnerships. This money will go a long way in helping to build the future of migrant communities, especially the children, in the Mae Sot region. A first-class raffle, which included a wealth of luxury prizes, added to the excitement of the evening, as did the door prize of two return British Airways flights to London.
