👨🎤👩🎤 On Saturday, November 10 2018 the Perot Museum is doing it again – even bigger and even better. Their annual fundraising gala is taking place with the theme “Rock the Perot”. We love this even because all proceeds raised go towards STEM access for North Texas kids. From rock star impersonators, crystal tattoos and fiber-optic hair, to glitzy gems, edible art tables, and an iridescent after-party, Night at the Museum will have you partying like pop stars!
🎸🖼 Rock the night away! The Perot Museum of Nature and Science will host its annual Night at the Museum soiree “ themed Rock the Perot “ on Saturday, Nov. 10. With proceeds supporting STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education in North Texas, the event will feature a VIP backstage rock star pre-party, rock star impersonators, crystal tattoos, glam-rock makeup, live entertainment, post-party dancing and more. Wolfgang Puck Catering will present a rock-the-palate spread of edible art, delectable bites (with a beat!), rocky soil wines and craft cocktails.
🎉💠 Event co-chairs are Heather and Chris Gilker and Linda and Ken Wimberly, and honorary chairs are Fallon and Robie Vaughn. Presenting sponsors are Lyda Hill and Margot and Ross Perot.
