Break out the Girl Scouts cookies and bonfire songs. The Art Production Fund held a camp-themed gala at the Pool and the Grill on March 15, complete with slushy machines, chicken fingers, lobster rolls and bags of Lay’s potato chips served on fine china. The art and fashion crowd embraced the dress code with gusto, showing up in camouflage jumpsuits, badge-covered sashes and arm floaties.
