Boghossian, the iconic jeweller renowned for its dedication to cultural heritage, craftsmanship, and artistry, proudly served as the luxury sponsor of The Academy Ball 2024. This year’s event, themed “Voyage,” celebrated the power of art to connect cultures and communities, perfectly aligning with Boghossian’s philosophy of bridging tradition and innovation. The Academy Ball, a highlight of Hong Kong’s cultural calendar, is a vital fundraising event in support of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA). This year’s Voyage theme was inspired by Boghossian’s Palace Voyages collection, which draws on the art, architecture, and cultural milestones of the historic Silk Road. From ancient palaces to timeless civilizations, the collection reimagines these wonders through contemporary jewellery design, reflecting the beauty of cultural exchange and the legacy of craftsmanship.
The program also featured stunning live performances by HKAPA students, showcasing their exceptional talent in dance and drama—a testament to the Academy’s vital role in fostering future generations of artists. These performances highlighted the power of creativity to inspire and connect, a value deeply shared by Boghossian. Through the support of the Boghossian Foundation, the brand continues its mission to preserve and celebrate the beauty of cultural heritage while championing the arts. By blending timeless craftsmanship with bold innovation, Boghossian creates jewelry that tells stories of connection, creativity, and history.
The evening reached its climax with the auction of three exquisite jewelry lots generously donated by Boghossian: two from the Merveilles collection and one set from the Inlay Shine collection. These stunning creations inspired spirited bidding from enthusiastic guests, achieving remarkable prices in support of the Academy’s future educational initiatives.
