Cupcakes & Cocktails

Hosted by the Long Island Children's Museum, this annual fundraiser brings out "kids at heart" from across the region to "play with purpose" in support of LICM's educational programs, family performances and community outreach efforts.
 

The evening features a continuous cocktail party that allows guests the opportunity to play throughout the galleries, enjoy live musical performances and explore their creative side with "mini-workshops" - from watercolor painting to jewelry design. Guests can also try their hand at games from their childhood - from skee ball to slot car races.
 

A live auction, featuring celebrity auctioneer Christian Kohlberg, produces some spirited bidding as guests vie for experiential packages involving sporting events, travel, exclusive meet and greets and much more.
 

The evening attracts Long Island's trend setters, corporate leaders and area athletes; drawn by their shared interest in supporting the Museum's effort s on behalf of children and families.
