Miami, FL – April 30, 2016 – The Cushman School held its annual Gala at Mana Wynwood, grossing over $750,000. This year’s whimsical theme was “Through the Looking Glass”, a playful spin on the widely popular fairy-tale classic Alice in Wonderland where guests came dressed in 18th-century Victorian and Steampunk fashionable wear to celebrate the night. Funds raised from the gala will go toward scholarships that enrich diversity, additional programming and the PLAY TO LEARN campaign to bring a new performing arts and athletic center to the school and community by fall 2017.
