Seaside Soiree Auction & Gala Raises Funds for STEAM Expansion
On Saturday, May 1, The Woodlands Christian Academy held Seaside Soiree, our annual Auction & Gala at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott. Over 300 guests attended the event, with Liberty Materials, Inc. and Monarch Silica serving as the 2021 presenting sponsors. Net proceeds amounted to approximately $866,841. These funds will be applied toward the expansion of STEAM and Fine Arts programs.
“I give thanks to God for all the blessings He has bestowed upon Woodlands Christian, not just monetarily, but also through the generous hearts and hands of every person who took part in this year’s gala,” said Mrs. Ambler, Head of School.
TWCA is committed to offering more opportunities for students to tap into their gifts of creativity. Mrs. Ambler believes that “by creating world-class STEAM and fine arts programs, students at The Woodlands Christian Academy will be inspired to develop their God-given gifts and talents and to appreciate God’s beautiful creations.”
The success of Seaside Soiree will allow for more long-term goals to begin. Along with offering more STEAM experiences for students in all grades, TWCA plans to complete the build-out of a high school STEAM lab with a state-of-the-art broadcasting studio and expand the existent STEAM lab that currently serves students in kindergarten through 4th grade. Within fine arts, TWCA plans to further enhance the 350-seat Ruth Auditorium performance space with upgraded sound systems and lights and add portable staging.
