More than 400 guests helped ring in the New Year at the Back Bay Gala at the Hyatt Boston Hotel. The event featured dinner, dancing, and an auction, a portion of which benefited the Ellie Fund, a nonprofit organization that improves the health and welfare of women undergoing breast cancer treatment in Massachusetts.
