About our Event

On November 13, 2026, Chicago Children’s Museum will host its Annual Gala, raising vital funds to help us continue expanding the programs, exhibits, and community initiatives that inspire children and families every day.

The world is changing rapidly. Families are navigating new challenges, and children are growing up in an increasingly complex and unpredictable landscape. Yet even in times of uncertainty, one thing remains clear: when children play, create, and connect, they gain the confidence and skills to reach new heights.

That belief is at the heart of this year’s event, Play at New Heights.
