This year’s host Meyer has founded several organizations, including the Melting Pot Foundation, focused on driving social change through food. With Melting Pot, in 2013, he started and helped establish a food school and a food movement in South America, opening the gourmet-restaurant Gustu in Bolivia and several cafeterias. The Melting Pot project is currently working on a social project in Brownsville, East New York, establishing a culinary school, cafeteria, bakery and community center, serving the local community and with the goal of engaging at-risk youth.

Meyer is the latest in a star-studded line up of hosts that the Sotheby’s event has attracted. Zagat Guide’s Nina and Tim Zagat hosted in 2015 and noted chef/entrepreneur Geoffrey Zakarian took center stage last year.
