Style runs the gamut at art parties. Jeans were appropriate at the After Hours gallery event in Williamsburg on Saturday and at the Edwin Gould Services for Children and Families art carnival on Sunday, where artists and children created paintings in preparation for a benefit auction. The establishment wore expensive, casual clothes at PaceWildenstein’s opening Friday for Fred Wilson. And the under-30 art set wore inexpensive, fancy clothes to the art shipping company Atelier 4’s party Saturday in Blissville (a neighborhood of Long Island City).

Did Allison Weiss and Dennis Brady look happy at the Edwin Gould art carnival? They were married March 4 and returned from their honeymoon to attend the art carnival and a party in their honor on the Forbes yacht. The couple lives in Miami and New York.

Enthusiasm and warmth mark the curators and artists associated with the Studio Museum in Harlem, as captured by the pictures here of the museum’s director and chief curator, Thelma Golden, curator Christine Kim, and artist Gary Simmons. So I expect the museum’s first benefit auction tonight at Christie’s will be a good time – and a good opportunity to buy works by Messrs. Simmons and Wilson, as well as Lyle Ashton Harris, Isaac Julien, Kara Walker, and Kehinde Wiley. Tickets start at $125 and are available by calling 212-966-4710.
