This year, over 1,000 guests, including philanthropists, designers, members of the Central Park Conservancy and overall lovers of Central Park, raised over $4.6 million for the preservation and upkeep of Manhattan\u2019s green jewel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s a big celebration for Central Park and the people who really love and care for the park,\u201d said Betsy Smith, the president and chief executive of the Central Park Conservancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year\u2019s event, which honored Diane Schaub, the Central Park Conservancy\u2019s curator of gardens, along with the Conservancy\u2019s garden staff, took nine months to plan, according to Ms. Smith. It is the biggest fund-raiser for the park, and the money raised will go toward operating costs for the park, including landscaping and park maintenance.\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Central Park Attendees at the Annual Frederick Law Olmsted Awards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10745,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[139,138,137],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","category-new-products","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/10745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arturorios.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
