Connecticut Science Center Gala: Close Encounters of the STEM Kind
Join us at the Connecticut Science Center Gala: Close Encounters of the STEM Kind for out-of-this-world cocktails, a seated dinner (with mashed potatoes), music, live and silent auctions, and more in support of inspiring programs to meet the current and future STEM workforce needs. The Connecticut Convention Center will be transformed into a not-to-miss celebration of science fiction through the ages.
Gala-goers will also celebrate STEM leaders and innovators in our community with a special presentation of the 2024 STEM Achievement Awards and Petit Family Foundation Women in Science Leadership Awards. This year, the Science Center will dedicate and present the first annual Dr. Theordore S. Sergi K-12 Educator of the Year Award.
