A little about the event courtesy of Komen Greater NYC:   City in Pink is the kick-off to Komen NYC Race for the Cure Week and marks a week-long tribute in lights as New York City buildings and stores illuminate and decorate themselves in pink to promote breast cancer awareness and celebrate the start of Race Week. In 2009, 31 structures and stores will be illuminated in pink each evening as a lead up to the Komen New York City Race for the Cure®. In addition, there will be six virtual City in Pink participants who will be turning their websites pink for the occasion.  Each year, City in Pink kicks off with an invitation-only party. This year’s event will be held at the Samsung Experience on the third floor of the Shops at Columbus Circle in the Time Warner Center.

The evening’s program will be hosted by CBS 2’s Maurice DuBois.  For more details  on this organization and event visit  www.komennyc.org.
