The 22nd annual gala took place at the Parrish Art Museum's vast party space and began with a cocktail reception on the terrace of the museum, which is marking 10 years since its move from Southampton village.
The evening continued with dinner and a live auction that raised $6.5 million from lots including a four-day Home Run Challenge MLB package, two VIP access packages to the 2023 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas, and a 2023 Fisker Ocean 1 (not yet available to the public).
Honestly, we don't know if that's a car or a boat or maybe even an actual ocean. But whatever it is, it's hard to get.
The night was highlighted by performances from ABBA The Concert, which is an ABBA tribute band, and Hall & Oates, who were the real thing.
The evening was part of the Prostate Cancer Foundation's annual PCF Pro-Am Tennis Tournament weekend, which concluded the next day with the finals match at he Shinnecock Tennis Club.
Seen: Michael Milken, Deepak Chopra, Alex Rodriguez, Oliver Stone, Candace Bushnell, Katie Couric, John Paulson, Rob and Cindy Citrone, David Rubenstein, Caryn Zucker, and Jeff and Mei-Sze Green.
