Event Benefits The Children's Tumor Foundation and Children's Advocacy Center

Porsche afficionados had a rare treat recently when Park Place Porsche Dallas hosted a Porsche Exclusive event featuring artist Costa Christ’s fine art photography printed on vintage Porsche hoods. Costa Christ is a Porsche Dallas client and his magnificent black Porsche 911 Carrera 4S was also on display alongside his art.

Costa Christ’s artworks included classic and modern Porsches in front of everyday locations such as a convenience store and McDonald’s and In-N-Out Burger restaurants. He also showcased Porsches in front of iconic Dallas landmarks like Campisi’s Restaurant. Guests even had the opportunity to commission custom artwork by Costa Christ with sales benefitting The Children’s Tumor Foundation and Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center.

The event featured exquisite cuisine and fabulous cocktails from Thompson Dallas Chef Jeramie Robison and his team who created a delicious charcuterie bar with crudites, pickles, olives, shaved broccoli slaw, tabbouleh, grilled garlic-herb pita, lavash, hummus, baba ganoush, and tzatziki ranch. An ice sculpture seafood display offered poached shrimp and crab claws, with ceviche sauces: remoulade, cocktail sauce and mignonette. On the service drive, guests enjoyed a Yakitori grill cooked up cumin-chile lamb lollipops, Zatar filet tips and Harissa chicken.

Meanwhile, the dessert station offered an array of sweet delights including Pomelo Rosemary Shortbread Sandwich Cookies, Chocolate Pot de Crème, and Pistachio, Mango and White Chocolate Macaroons. Guests also enjoyed custom Socorro margaritas and sampled Soledad Tequila.

Porsche Dallas gifted each guest with a leather mousepad embossed on-site with the iconic Porsche logo and a swag bag with Porsche and Costa Christ branded items.
