Museum of Discovery's Spark! Event Happening Tonight

Museum of Discovery

Spark! is an annual fundraiser at the Museum of Discovery in downtown Little Rock, co-chaired this year by Keli Wylie and Tad Bohannon. The event seeks to raise funds for the museum while promoting STEM education and highlighting the impactful careers that can be found in these fields. 

  • Visibility: Up-and-coming STEM careerists need role models to show them what success looks like in the field. Spark! hopes to do just that by honoring and introducing the community to the “Spark! Stars”. 

  • Funding: The event is a two-part affair that includes a luncheon and a gala. The funding raised will help keep the museum up-to-date and stocked with new exhibits in order to keep kids engaged. 

Other Spark! events took place in October and earlier this month, and tonight is the Spark! Gala - for more information and to learn how you can support STEM education HERE
