New York, NY – April 10, 2019 – On Sunday April 7, COA successfully held its 2019 Charity Gala and Auction “Spring Rhapsody” at the Bay Room in the financial district. The Gala included both silent and live auction segments, featuring eight artists from China and the US, representing both established powerhouses as well as rising stars worthy of the Big Apple.Gala proceeds will support the continued operation of the COA Foundation, which since 2015 has helped thousands of new immigrants acclimatize to America with language and cultural classes. COA Foundation has also amassed a network of hundreds of Chinese volunteers that regularly hold online and offline activities.COA’s Gala was also the first party of its kind in New York City. It was a resounding success, indicative of the amount of support COA Foundation has been able to garner not just from artists, sponsors and institutions in New York, but all around the world. It set the standard for fund-raising events and has since been the traditional opener of the social and theatrical season in New York City.
