Get ready to embrace your inner child and “Color Your Imagination!”
Considered by many to be the most unique and playful event of the South Florida social season, Miami Children’s Museum’s Be A Kid Again Gala brings together all the chic fashionable color in your life. The gala features exceptional entertainment, luxurious auctions and a culinary experience unlike any other.
This year’s event, chaired by Heide and Jose Dans with auction chair Melissa Netkin, will take place on Saturday, Mar. 16, starting at 6:30 p.m., at Soho Studios, 2136 NW First Ave. in the arts district of Wynwood.

Guests will feel like a kid again from the moment they enter Soho Studios. Everyone is encouraged to dress in colorfully chic attire. The night begins with a not-to-be-missed cocktail reception filled with an extensive silent auction with unique pieces.
Adding the spice to the colorful imagination-themed extravaganza is a taste-tempting array of treats provided by Chef David Schwadron Catering and Event Design with a color infused twist that brings to life all the iconic visions of fantasy and fun.
