Celebrating Phyllis Shikora and Doug Cohen P’03, 06, 09 for Shaping Lives Through Philanthropy
Watkinson School is pleased to announce the annual gala A Watkinson Affair is on April 26 at 6pm at The Goodwin Hotel in Hartford. In addition to a live and silent auction, an alumni speaker, and a paddle raise, the centerpiece of the evening’s program will celebrate Phyllis Shikora and Doug Cohen P’03, 06, 09 for Shaping Lives Through Philanthropy.
A Watkinson Affair directly supports Watkinson’s private school annual fund, which provides essential funds to support teacher salaries, technology, financial aid, athletics, global studies and creative arts programs, and much more.
An extensive list of volunteers makes this event possible, chaired by Kendra Wiesel and the honorary chair is Kathleen Kane-Francalangia. The evening begins at 6pm, with a cocktail reception, followed by dinner, a program, dessert, and dancing. Tickets for the event are already sold out; sponsorship and advertising opportunities are still available.
