SPARK!

October 25, 2013 11:22 a.m.

Kelley Bass, director of the city’s Museum of Discovery, tripped the switch on Spark!, the museum’s new fundraiser, Oct. 17. All told, the museum expects gross revenue around $130,000, which, after expenses, is still a six-figure haul. “In terms of the performance of our fundraisers, historically,” Bass says, “last year’s Uncorked … netted $53,000, so you can see that we will easily more than double that with the inaugural Spark! The key was that cash sponsorships were more than triple what we’d ever done for Uncorked.”
