The Bronx, NY (May 8, 2019) — The Bronx Children’s Museum (www.bronxchildrensmuseum.org) hosted its third annual benefit gala on Tuesday, May 7, 2019, in New York City at Manhattan’s Gotham Hall. The night was dedicated to the children of the Bronx – past, present, and future, The benefit was a resounding success, grossing nearly $500,000 for the organization’s outreach programming reaching over 18,000 children annually, and its new state-of-the-art facility – the borough’s first-ever children’s museum – opening in 2020. |
A highlight of the evening was an endearing dance routine performed by four second grade children in the Museum’s Dream Big After School program – which prompted a standing ovation. |
Hope Harley, President of the Board of Directors commented, “It was an exciting evening full of warmth and spontaneity. We are so grateful to all our attendees for their tremendous show of support. Through their generosity, the children of the Bronx will continue to have access to inspiring arts, culture and natural sciences programs where they can have fun learning about themselves and their surroundings.” The evening concluded with a performance by Bronx-native and Grammy-nominated Latin-Jazz musician Bobby Sanabria, which brought the enthusiastic audience to the dance floor. |
