Gala 2024

Thank You for Your Support!


On Saturday, September 7th, the Museum was transformed into a magical garden for our Play the Night Away Gala!

This year’s event raised $143,000 in support of our Wonder Fund,

which provides accessible admissions for low-income and special needs guests.


Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us,

and to all of our incredible sponsors and donors for making the event a huge success!
