We are glad the Viennese Ball at Harvard is back after a two-year hiatus 👊 Our co-president Stephan Florian Rihs hosted a large, diverse crowd for a pre-ball get-together in the spirit of Johann Strauss and the original Viennese balls 🎼 At the ball, the current club leadership took some photos as well, with past club leaders and the current leadership of the Harvard Kennedy School Central European Caucus. What a nice of waltz, merriness and conversation 🥳🤝🇦🇹 Thanks and congrats again to Ball President Leonard Falke for a tremendous effort 👏
