Storybook Ball
Please join Cinderella and Prince Charming at Please Touch Museum's Storybook Ball. This family fundraising event will be open to all families - bring your grandchildren, children, niece or nephew! Families will be encouraged to dress as their favorite storybook characters and will enjoy food provided by Max and Me, carousel rides, entertainment, a theatrical production of "Eat Like a Pirate", a performance by the GESU School Ballroom Dancers and a 25% discount at the Kids' Store for the entire night. We hope you will join us for a night of family fun!
Proceeds from this event will benefit the museum’s community programs, which we have offered for over 18 years. Our innovative outreach programming serves non-traditional museum audiences and provides interactive experiences for underserved families in the region.
Please contact Laura Stanley, Director of Annual Giving, with questions at lstanley@pleasetouchmuseum.org or call the Event Line at (215) 581-3176.
