“A Night at the Museum 2012 – Under the Big Top”

The evening is full of fun and the unexpected, with guests enjoying a night of fabulous food,
delectable libations and frivolity, as they support the fund-raising efforts of the Museum.

Each time, the tickets sell out quickly and the event raises one-third of the dollars
needed to keep the Kids Discovery Museum open. This is a wonderful venue for sponsors to highlight their many contributions to the community with 200 top donors. This year’s event is scheduled for September 7, 2012.

Sponsorship Benefits

Depending on the sponsorship level:

  • Web site, marketing materials and verbal acknowledgment during the event.
