On the Scene at the AICP 2009 Holiday Party in New York

The 2009 AICP East Holiday Party took place on Tuesday, December 15 at famed restaurateur Danny Meyer’s Hudson Yards Catering Kitchen.  Members of the commercial production and post production industry mingled with agency producers, studio executives and more than a few working cooks and kitchen staff as they made their way between racks of pots and pans and prep stations. The event was a benefit for the US Marine Corp’s Toys for Tots campaign.  SourceEcreative was on the scene—we even donated a couple of playthings.  Were you there?  Photos appear below.
