Discovery Place KIDS is known throughout the Charlotte area for being the premiere location for kids to let loose and have a ball. Well, now that it is turning 1 year old, the folks over at Discovery Place- Huntersville are giving kids and grown ups alike another chance to have even more of a ball….a masquerade ball that is!
On October 21st, Discovery Place KIDS is hosting its very first FUNdraiser for the museum, Can Can’s Masquerade Ball. Attendees are encouraged to don their “masquerade chic” and head out to the museum for an enchanted evening of music, crafts, activities and food. Not only can kids come in full costume, they will also be able to make their own masquerade mask, decorate lanterns, and juggle like a jester. They can also build a castle for Can Can, Discovery Place KIDS’s very own mascot who will be in attendance. What ball would be complete without delicious morsels to nosh on as you enjoy the evening’s delights? {Heavy hors d’oeuvres will be served to refresh families as they play throughout the museum.}
As Discovery Place KIDS is a community museum, charitable donations and community help sustain programming and special educational efforts. The money raised from this event will help support the superior educational programming they offer to our children. The event is from 6:30 to 9pm, and adult tickets are $50 while children’s tickets are $25. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to have a night of family fun that also supports continuing education and creativity in our area.
