About the Event

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the 2025 Children's Museum Houston Gala, set to take place at the elegant Corinthian in Houston, TX, on October 18, 2025. This year’s gala promises to be a spectacular celebration, chaired by two pairs of dynamic duos Kathryn and Travis Boeker and Cassandra and Ryan Dalton. Attendees will enjoy an evening of unparalleled luxury, beginning with a dazzling silent auction and culminating in an exciting live auction, featuring exclusive, one-of-a-kind items. It’s the perfect opportunity to support a worthy cause while bidding on unforgettable experiences and treasures.

The festivities continue with an exquisite dinner curated by Jackson and Company, renowned for their exceptional culinary creations. After dinner, the party moves to the dance floor, where a live band will keep the energy high and the crowd dancing late into the night. This highly anticipated event will raise vital funds for the Children's Museum Houston, ensuring that it continues to inspire and educate children for years to come. Mark your calendar for a night of elegance, entertainment, and philanthropy you won't want to miss!

This gala benefitting Children's Museum Houston is one of the city's most anticipated events of the year. Celebrate for a good cause with us this October.

All proceeds raised from the Gala will be used to provide enriching exhibits and programming to more than 1.3 million visitors and outreach participants each year. The Museum’s educational outreach is provided free of charge to low-income families in neighborhoods throughout the Greater Houston area and our free admission programs provide access to the Museum for all families. As we move forward in these uncertain times, parents and children will continue to need our high-quality learning opportunities and resources more than ever, and Children's Museum Houston is committed to serving these families.
