You can make a difference in a child’s life right here in our community by supporting the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History’s 20th annual Mission Creek Soiree Walk Our Wild Side. This exciting event will take place on Saturday, May 18th on the Museum’s Mission Canyon campus.

This annual event celebrates the Museum’s incredible commitment to nature and science education for schoolchildren. This year’s Soiree will include beautiful décor, specialty cocktails, a gourmet dinner, and a few surprises specifically designed to provide our guests a truly enjoyable evening.

The Museum touches the lives of nearly 20,000 schoolchildren each year. For many of these children, the Museum or the Sea Center is their first introduction to the wonders of nature and the remarkable region in which we live. These learning experiences set the stage for a life-long interest in both science and the natural world.
