Miami Children’s Museum Carnival
A Smashing Success


Norma Jean Abraham and Irene Korge
DJs played music, as children rode ponies and scrambled up amusement rides. Ice cream, birthday cake, hot dogs, and other treats were enjoyed by all, and a larger-than-life Clifford the Big Red Dog and the Museum’s own mascot Michimu, played with guests. The event also included professional family photos, a Serenity Lounge by Bloomingdales and Starbucks, face painting and balloon art, and art demos with prominent local artists including Darren Brass, James Hamilton, Alex Yanes, Ralph Cabrera and Daniel Marin.
Co-Chairs Norma Jean Abraham and Irene Korge joined in the festivities. Other guests included the new Board Chair Jeff Berkowitz, Anthony R. Abraham of the Anthony R. Abraham Foundation, Romero Britto, The Paresky Family and MCM board members Melissa Krinzman, Gary Reshefsky, Julie Paresky, Stephanie Rosen and Jenni Roig.
