Our Winter Gala Fundraiser Returns!

We will be hosting a Winter Gala in our School Barn for the first time, this coming January 17, 2026.

The School Barn at Winter Night

The Winter Gala is our biggest fundraiser party of the year, where our Parent Community Organization (PACO) partners with the local children's non-profit 501(c)(3), KidSkill Fund, to raise funds for local children's scholarships for education and extra-curricular programs in the Catskill Region.

In the past few years, we've held a Summer Gala on campus, followed by a Winter Gala at Andes Hotel.

This time, we will be returning back to our campus grounds, to showcase our beautiful, nature-based school and share more the impact that tuition aid from the KidSkill Fund has had for many of our students, in keeping with our school's mission of being a school available "to all children seeking it."

The party will involve cocktails, drinks, hors d'oeuvres, student presentations, a silent auction with high-end auction items and tours of the school. Our students will be presenting different artwork and projects that you can engage in, to see how they are benefitting from being enrolled in our school. Please consider to participate in whatever way you can:

1. Buy tickets and join our Winter Gala party on January 17

2. Donate / Volunteer auction items, event products and/or services to the Gala event (email paco@bovinamontessori.com)

3. If you are unable to join;

   1. share this event far and wide with family and friends, or

   2. donate directly to the KidSkill Fund and support directly a student's tuition so they can continue at the school!

We hope to see as many of you as possible - child care is available on the night on campus - limited spots, first come first serve!
