A Sip of Science is the Wagner’s signature fundraising event. It draws together Wagner supporters, community leaders, and a distinguished honoree for a night of cocktails and camaraderie amid our sublime natural history collections. Party proceeds allow us to preserve our National Historic Landmark building and collections, and provide free access to science for thousands of people every year. This year's party is more important than ever as we work to fully reopen our building and return to the range of in-person programing we were able to offer before the pandemic.

This year's party will be held in honor of Dr. Kenneth Scott, President and CEO of Beech Companies, for his dedication to the people and places in our community. More on Ken.

In accordance with city policy, guests will be required to present proof of vaccination.

Interested in sponsoring this year's event? Opportunities are available now at several levels, starting at $500!
