PLAY 2026: π Day Soirée!

Save the date: March 14th, 2026

A fundraiser for our Access for All Initiatives.

The Impact of PLAY

Our Access for All initiatives reduce barriers to STEAM education for families and classrooms in our community. Scholarships ignite students’ curiosity through field trips and outreach programs, and reduced-cost admission makes memories at the Museum for families receiving food-assistance benefits.

All children Southeast Michigan in deserve equitable access to explore the sciences—and this is only possible with you! By purchasing tickets to PLAY, you are creating transformative moments of discovery for our entire community. Thank you so much for your support.

Tickets Include: Drinks, Strolling Dinner & Dessert and infinite explorations of what makes a circle round.

  • PLAY is a 21+ event, so we ask that you please don’t bring your children. For family-friendly events, check out our program calendar!

  • Think colorful, dramatic, unique, and playful. This is just a guide—dress up in whatever way makes you feel ready to party. See our PLAY style guide here!

  • As the Museum does not have a public parking lot, please park either on the street or in a nearby parking garage such as Republic (220 N Ashley St) or 4th & Washington Deck (123 E Washington St).
