“An Out of this World Event” is Planned to Celebrate a Spring Groundbreaking,
Coinciding Big Bang Young Professionals Nightlife-Inspired Party to be Held Feb. 11, 2012

This exciting milestone celebration will not only commemorate the 10-year history of the Gala, but also showcase the new $275 million Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science, slated to break ground in spring 2012. The state-of-the-art waterfront project in downtown Miami, adjacent to the American Airlines Arena, will be completed by the end of 2014.

The black tie optional event will be the Museum’s most “astronomical” Gala to date. The evening will “take off” at 6:30 p.m. with a cocktail reception and auction, followed by dinner, dancing and a special entertainment feature that will create an unforgettable galactic experience.

The event is presented by Miami Science Museum’s Board of Trustees. Gala co-chairs are Nancy and Jonathan M. Batchelor and Nicole and Edgar M. Lozano.

“We expect this year’s Gala to be the most stellar to date,” said Nancy Batchelor. “Guests will enjoy a cosmic evening while reflecting on the many strides the Museum has made since it was founded in 1949, and how it’s reaching into the future with the new Museum project.”

Nicole Lozano said, “We’re elated to present Gala guests all that is in store for the new Museum. It is truly a phenomenal venture.”

Various Galaxy Gala sponsorship, underwriting and advertising opportunities are available. In honor of the 10th Anniversary Gala, the Museum will reserve 10 percent of sponsorships at the Bronze level and above to support the Educational Access Program, which allows youth with limited financial means, Title 1 School children and constituents of various social service organizations to attend the Museum free of charge.
