A glittering gala

Jazzy J&J: Guess what, noties?

The inaugural Joie de Vivre Gala fundraiser (spectacularly chaired by
Ana Afeyan) also worked the Jeans and Jools theme to perfection,
raising an inspiring $65,000 for Hay Doun Family Support
Services. Founded by Primate of the Armenian Church of Canada, Bishop
Bagrat Galstanian, Hay Doun provides social services and civic
education to Quebecers of Armenian origin and the community at large.

And like D&D, the J&J at Bonsecours was a night to remember for all
265. Among the highlights: a shmoozy-fun cocktail; moving speeches by
emcee Narod Odabashian, Bishop Galstanian, Hay Doun chairperson Nayiri
Tavlian, and Mayor Gérald Tremblay (there with gallant bro Marcel); a
brimming buffet by Bon Appetit featuring "treasure cakes" by La
Gterie; mega boogie thanks to the Rhythm Club; Levon Afeyan’s auction
fever; and a glittering guest list graced by Eileen Margossian and
husband Vahé Kassardjian; Rudsak toppest (and top sponsor) Evik
Asatoorian with magnificent Mary; Sossi Manoukian and hub John;
Conservative candidate for Laval-Les Îles, Agop Evereklian; Bellinda
and Aram Yacoubian; master attorney Harry Dikranian and wife Norma
Alepian; Marcelle-Lavoie Meterissian and husband, Sarkis; Chanel’s
Anny Kazanjian with better-than-any-accessory, hub Andy Habib; plastic
surgeon Nabil Fanous and glam wife Stephanie; and Tria Publications’
Houri Hakimian.

The Event Equation? Denim + Diamonds+ Jeans+Jewels=Pure jeanius!!
