DDear Friends of Kaleideum ...
We're bouncing the Ball to the Fall!
Kaleideum's Kaleidoscope Ball has historically been held in the Spring, supporting critical operations that allow us to meet our mission of inspiring wonder, curiosity, and lifelong learning in children and our community. Funds raised through this annual event help us increase access, provide camp scholarships, enhance educational programs, and support hands-on learning experiences in the museum — in other words, ALL the things that make Kaleideum such a special place!
COVID-19 prevented us from hosting an in-person gala for the past two years and in classic Kaleideum style, we successfully REIMAGINED our approach. The 2020 Kaleidoscope Ball offered “a late in the game” pivot to an online auction, and in 2021, we brought the Ball to you via our “Party in a Box” so you could have a ball wherever you might be. With both of these unconventional events we were awed and inspired by the generous community support and the grace with which it was given. For this, we are so very grateful.
This year, we pivot yet again by moving the Ball to the Fall! So, mark your calendars, dig out those dancing shoes and plan to join us on Friday, October 21, 2022, for an extraordinary evening at the iconic Millennium Center. There will be cocktails, dinner, incredible auction items, live music, and a whole lot of boogie!
A heartfelt thanks to our longtime friend and Presenting Sponsor, Novant Health, for the organization's continued support and passion for Kaleideum. We are so excited to partner with Novant for this pivotal move!
We look forward to creating a Kaleidoscope Ball in the Fall and seeing you all in October!
Sincerely,
Director of Annual Giving
