Media Contact: "BUILDING THE FUTURE" The Fifth Annual Miami Science Museum Gala will be held on Friday evening, February 16, 2007 at The Ritz Carlton, Key Biscayne. The event is being co-chaired by Brenda Nestor Castellano and Swanee DiMare. This year's Gala theme, "Building the Future", spotlights the purpose for the Annual Gala: to support the planning and development of the new Science Museum in downtown Miami's soon to be "Museum Park": between the American Airlines Arena and the Carnival Center for the Performing Arts. Miami's General Obligation Bond passage has provided $175M in funding towards our new facility in downtown "Museum Park". Capital Campaign planning is now underway to reach total project costs of $275 M. The new Museum project is moving forward from vision to reality and the forthcoming "Building the Future" Gala will honor and support this pioneering effort. ### The Miami Museum of Science & Planetarium, founded in 1949, is accredited by the American Association of Museums and is an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution. The Museum is a recipient of the National Award for Museum Service by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Major operating support for the Museum is received from Miami-Dade County Mayor, Board of County Commissioners, Departments of Cultural Affairs, and the Cultural Affairs Council; the Institute of Museum and Library Services; and the Florida Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, and the Florida Arts Council. |
