Discovery Night is the Mississippi Children’s Museum’s (MCM) signature family fundraising event. This year, the event is held to coincide with the Mississippi Science Festival (September 22 & 23). This special evening celebrates children’s literature and delves into the fascinating world of science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM). Discovery Night, previously known as Fall Festival, is in its seventh year. The event is hosted annually by MCM Partners, a group of volunteers and donors committed to supporting and raising money for MCM. This year’s theme, Journey to Space, was selected to encourage children to investigate the outer limits of their imagination. By launching them into the world of space literature, it is the goal of MCM to encourage children not only to read more, but to reach for the stars! This year’s event will feature out-of-this-world food and drinks, along with fun musical entertainment, special activities, and a silent auction. Children and their families are encouraged to dress in their favorite space gear! Visit our website, mschildrensmuseum.org, to purchase tickets to this stellar event!
