Morrison Cohen to Sponsor Arsht Center’s 17th Anniversary Gala

Morrison Cohen, in a gift underwritten by Y. David Scharf, is among the sponsors of the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts’ 17th Anniversary Gala, the Center’s marquee philanthropic event. The masquerade-themed gala will be held on Saturday, April 1, 2023 at the John S. and James L. Knight Concert Hall in Miami. The event will bring together more than 200 community leaders to support the Center’s mission-driven arts education and community engagement programs.

Last year’s gala raised an unprecedented $13 million toward arts education and paid internships, thanks to a $10 million endowment gift by Adrienne Arsht and the generosity of individual and corporate supporters.

David, who serves as Director of the Arsht Center’s Trust Board, said, “We believe strongly in the impactful arts education opportunities that the Arsht Center provides. Sharing the arts with young people means contributing to their intellectual and emotional development and investing in healthier and smarter future generations.”
