PR Newswire: California Science Center’s 24th Annual Discovery Ball Honors the Rich Maya Legacy of Art, Science, and Culture
On Saturday, April 1st, 2023, the California Science Center Foundation hosted its 24th Annual Discovery Ball where 600 guests dined and danced "Under the Maya Sky." This year's theme was inspired by the Science Center's newest exhibit, Maya: The Exhibition. Thanks to the generosity of presenting sponsor United Airlines and many other generous donors, the Discovery Ball achieved its revenue goal of $1.5 million in support of educational exhibits, programs and operations of the Science Center; including more than $200,000 to underwrite education program scholarships for young students facing financial barriers. "We are grateful for the wonderful generosity of our sponsors and guests, particularly United Airlines, our gala presenting sponsor, who have continued to support the Science Center," remarked California Science Center President and CEO, Jeff Rudolph. "Proceeds from our signature fundraiser enable us to provide exceptional science learning and education opportunities for our communities."
