“Change the World” Celebration

April 5 @ 6:00 pm – 9:30 pm
How can you help change the world? By spending a fun evening at the EcoTarium’s “Change the World” celebration! Enjoy the exhibits, animal encounters, a silent auction, music, a selection of drinks (two free drink tickets included) and heavy appetizers, and more!
It’s a night of exploration, connection, and fun for adults of all ages. Catered by Simply Delicious Catering. Attire is smart-casual or business-casual.
This event is a fundraiser to support the development of an interactive exhibit called “Change the World”, which will be part of the new Early Childhood Science Learning Center (opening late 2026).
It is being held in honor of Anthony Putnam, a little boy with big dreams of changing the world for the better, who passed away unexpectedly at the age of 5. Anthony’s ideas and dreams are the inspiration for this new exhibit.
Pre-registration is preferred. Tickets are still available!
Our “Change the World” silent auction in honor of Anthony Putnam is now live! Make your bid TODAY and help change the world!
Our “Change the World” Online Auction runs in conjunction with the “Change the World” Celebration which will be held on Saturday, April 5, 2025. Proceeds from the auction will benefit the development of the “Change the World” interactive exhibit in the EcoTarium’s new Early Childhood Science Learning Center (opening late 2026). Silent auction bidding will close at 8:30 pm, April 5, 2025. Participation in the silent auction can be done fully remotely – you do not need to attend the event.

THANK YOU!
