SARATOGA SPRINGS —The Yaddo Summer Benefit - “An Evening Under the Stars” - was staged June 22 on the grounds of the fabled arts colony on Union Avenue. 

This year’s program featured a silent auction, a musical performance by Yaddo 2020 and 2022 artists-in-residence The Lazours, and was chaired by Candace Wait.

Cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and food stations were created by Chef Tim Brockmon and the Yaddo culinary team for approximately 350 guests in attendance.

The Summer Benefit raises about $180,000 for Yaddo’s artist residency programming. For more information about Yaddo, go to: yaddo.org.
