On Saturday, July 18th the first annual Surf Ball took place at the Surf Lodge, hosted by Sasha Benz and All My Friends Are Models with Milkmade.com, in support of Global Citizen. The magical Montauk social scene has reached a fever pitch this summer, so why not celebrate the action with a ball? Co-owned by Jayma Cardoso, the Surf Lodge hosted the first annual “Surf Ball” this weekend, consisting of a series of events. The Surf Lodge has hosted both established and exciting emerging musical acts for the past several years, and last weekend’s line-up did not disappoint, consisting of: Lola Wolf, Zoe Kravitz’s band, and KANEHOLLER, a duo consisting of Chelsea Tyler (the daughter of Steven Tyler) and Jon Foster (the brother of musician Ben Foster).









‘Dining in the Spotlight’ was photographed by Ben Watts with media partner The Daily Summer.
