‘Twin Peaks’ School Benefit Raises $15,000
The Santa Monica Alternative School raised more than $15,000 from a recent “Twin Peaks” benefit.
Supporters of the school, which concentrates on the visual and dramatic arts and computer sciences, bid on donated items associated with the cult TV series, produced by David Lynch and aired on ABC.
Among the items auctioned: the tuxedo shirt worn by agent Dale Cooper (actor Kyle MacLachlan) in last year’s cliff-hanger final episode, which brought $300, and the original pilot script, which brought $650.
The school, which opened in 1973, has an enrollment of 150 students.
“Twin Peaks” star Russ Tamblyn and his wife, Bonnie, co-chaired the event.
