HOPE Fashion Show Raises Over $5,000 for the Billion Oyster Project

May 3, 2024 | School Life Highlights

Our Upper School Club, HOPE: Fashion with a Purpose, hosted their annual Fashion Show this past February, and it was a roaring success! Adult guests enjoyed an “Oyster Party” with freshly-shucked oysters to pair with the show’s underwater theme.

Audience members enjoyed an amazing showcase of fashion, music, and more! It was incredible to see student-made designs from the new Wearable Art course worn by Upper School students and especially fun to see Lower and Middle School students strutting their stuff! The audience also enjoyed musical performances by student vocalists accompanied by “MODE” (Musicians of D-E) and set design by the Upper School “Art in Action Club”.

Altogether, HOPE raised over $5,000 for the Billion Oyster Project, a local non-profit committed to restoring oyster reefs in the New York Harbor. Congratulations to all students and faculty involved in the show!
