Tickets ($125 per person) will be available online soon, with proceeds benefiting the DCM.

Here’s the 411:

"I am mindful of the positive impact that a children's museum with a science, math and technology focus can have on kids' academic pursuits and career interests later in life. I've seen it in my own kids and have no doubt DCM can carry that same spark in the generations to come in Delaware."
