Get Your Geek On!
Join us for an unforgettable evening Thursday, September 18, from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM, as we celebrate our collective curiosity at the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History’s Geek Gala!
Museum curators will venture into the collections and bring out artifacts from the Ice Age and the Space Age, and so many “ages” in between.

We’ll introduce Pleistocene-era mammoth bones, things in jars, and our rare (and whimsical!) “Fiji mermaid.”

Teen volunteers will introduce you to a dazzling array of insects.

Museum educators will entertain you with a “hair-raising” science show featuring fire and ice.

We’ll explore Museum on the Road traveling trunks, bring local history to life, take a first look at the Drop-In Innovation Lab, and so much more.

Enjoy dinner provided by the Corpus Christi Mustangs.
“Space-bar” tenders will pour themed cocktails from the cash bar and a DJ will spin prehistoric stomps and zero-gravity grooves throughout the night.
Time to Get Geeky
Typical gala attire such as dresses and buttoned up shirts and ties are great.
But this is also an opportunity to get funky with it! Costumes and Wild prints like planets, dinos, plants, bugs, etc are all HIGHLY welcomed.
We will have complimentary hair tinsel, hair glitter, and face glitter in multiple colors. So guests can also come dressed in normal gala fashion and add some pizzazz once they get here if they’d like.
Think geeky glasses, suspenders, a beetle broach, dinosaur leggings. Have fun with it!
