Curry Automotive Gives Back to the Community
"On the Boardwalk" Masked Ball Gala a Great Success! Event Raised Over $500,000 for the Westchester Children's Museum.
Over 400 enthusiastic supporters of the future Westchester Children's Museum (WCM) attended the On the Boardwalk Masked Ball on October 13 at the Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht Club, and raised over $500,000 for the Campaign for the Westchester Children's Museum.
Cynthia Foster Curry and Bernard F. Curry, III of Rye were the evening's honorees, having been a driving force in the Campaign for several years. Bernard F. Curry III is the Owner and Chief Executive of Curry Automotive which has been family owned and operated since 1919 with 13 new car franchises in Westchester County as well as franchises in Chicopee, Massachusetts and Atlanta, Georgia.
"This event demonstrated strong community support for the WCM, and will enable us to build a world-class museum for our children and the children of this county for generations to come," commented Corinne Zola, president of the WCM Board of Directors. "This gala was an unprecedented success; it was a sold out event and it doubled the amount of funds raised from the previous year. Quite a remarkable achievement!
About the Westchester Children's Museum
With a goal of opening in 2009 in the historic landmark Bathhouses at Rye Playland on Long Island Sound, the Westchester Children's Museum is currently in midst of a Campaign to raise $7 million in funds over the next two years with support from individuals, business, and Westchester County.
The County has allocated funds to restore the exterior of the Bathhouses and bring the buildings up to current code in anticipation of constructing a public-use facility. Upon completion of the County's remediation and restoration of the site, the Westchester Children's Museum will begin building out the interior as the new museum.
"We have the enthusiastic support of County Executive Andy Spano and members of the Board of Legislators. Our goal. at this time is to raise funds necessary to create the world-class facility that we envision, and to sustain its existence for generations to come," Ms. Zola added.
Once open, the Westchester Children's Museum will be a vibrant hands-on learning laboratory where children with their families, caregivers or teachers, can explore the history, arts, environment, and cultural diversity of our regional and global communities. The iconic pavilions will provide nearly 38,000 square feet of space for temporary and permanent exhibits, classrooms, a birthday party room, performance space, restaurant/cafe, gift shop, and other amenities.
