The 2009 San Francisco Social

Posted By Jillian Lobato on January 11th, 2010

On December 18, the 2009 San Francisco Social was held to benefit the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, which is the city’s largest public arts institution and include the de Young and the Legion of Honor. Founded by Anderson Pugash, and co-chaired by Kelly Landers and Peter Oberndorf, the social honored the private funding for their operations, art endeavors, and exhibitions.

Founded in 1895 and located in the heart of Golden Gate Park, the de Young is San Francisco’s oldest museum, and their collections include decorative arts, American paintings; arts from Africa, Oceania, and the Americas; and western and non-western textiles. The museum is specifically acclaimed for its many educational arts programs for children and adults. Re-built and re-opened in 2005 and designed by architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Mueron, de Young is one of the city’s most beloved museums.

The Legion of Honor is a beautiful building located in San Francisco’s Lincoln Park that was built to commemorate Californian soldiers who died in World War I. Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the Golden Gate Bridge, and all of San Francisco, the Legion’s collections include European decorative arts, paintings, ancient art, and one of country’s finest collections of works on paper including prints, drawings, photographs, and books.

Marin natives behind holiday benefit for philanthropic 20-somethings

Paul Liberatore

Anderson Pugash and Kelly Cregg know how lucky they are to have grown up wealthy in Marin County, with all the opportunities and privileges that brings. And now they feel it’s time for them to give back.

Both are college grads in their 20s who come from prominent Marin families that instilled in them the value of art and music and culture.

Pugash, who’s 23 and grew up in Tiburon, is the founder of the San Francisco Social, an annual holiday season benefit party for philanthropic-minded young people from Marin, San Francisco and the Peninsula.

Set for Dec. 18 at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, it’s a benefit for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, namely the de Young and the Legion of Honor. Pugash expects to raise $16,000 to $17,000 for them.

“We are delighted that these young art enthusiasts and supporters have chosen to celebrate the season with an event to benefit the Fine Arts Museums,” said museums director John Buchanan.

Cregg is the 25-year-old daughter of rock star Huey Lewis and his wife, Sidney. She has been on the organizing committee for the social since its inception for years ago.
