Westchester Children's Museum 10th Anniversary BIG GALA

RE-SAVE THE DATE TO CELEBRATE OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY GALA
NEW DATE: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 6:30PM

A State of Emergency called by Governor Hochul forced us to cancel our gala on Saturday, September 26, 2026, That doesn’t mean we can’t reschedule and celebrate our ten years of play, the people who built the Museum and those who benefit from it — our families, our schools, and our communities. Fortunately, the Westchester Children’s Museum is really good at pivoting when faced with obstacles.

Please join us on Friday, October 2
Same time, same location, cocktails, dinner, dancing, games, auction

We invite you to watch this special video message from Westchester Children’s Museum Executive Director Jeremy Scalchunes about our plans to reschedule the gala.
