The event will showcase two Brooklyn icons in one exciting evening: a reading, signing and Q&A by Brooklyn mommy author Amy Sohn from her new book, Prospect Park West in the minimalist architectural masterpiece, Richard Meier On Prospect Park. Sarah Jessica Parker's production company has optioned the story in conjunction with HBO for a half-hour show. In the same way that "Sex and the City" examined the lives of four independent women who live and love in contemporary Manhattan, Sohn's latest novel delves into the scandalous, sexy lives of four different mothers as each goes through a crisis adjusting to parenthood in the picturesque haven of Park Slope, Brooklyn.
Amy Sohn's private reading of Prospect Park West is sponsored by Richard Meier On Prospect Park. The newly-completed condominium residences at Richard Meier On Prospect Park gracefully overlook the location of the book's title, Prospect Park West, with spectacular cityscape, harbor and park views from the signature floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall glass. The building's design by Pritzker Prize winning architect Richard Meier celebrates the convergence of classic architecture and modern living. Guests will be treated to an insider's view of this modernist landmark while enjoying wine (www.SipFineWine.com) and sumptuous hors d'oeurves served up by Brooklyn's own Melt restaurant. (www.meltnyc.com). The evening will be capped off with live music by jazz guitarist, Chad Coe (www.chadcoe.com), raffle prizes and gift bags.
Momasphere events, founded by Ellen Bari and Melissa Lopata, create innovative programs and events that serve to empower, enrich and enlighten moms, while giving back to the community. The goal of Momasphere is to address the "whole mom" (mind, body, spirit) and reawaken & celebrate the multiple aspects of mothers as multi-faceted women with interests and skills that go beyond their roles as moms. A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit Children of the City (www.childrenofthecity.com).
