Step into the Ice Age and experience a night where elegance meets exploration at Eco Bash | Ice Age, our premier gala-style fundraiser benefiting the $10.5 million capital campaign – A River Runs Through Us.

This exclusive evening will offer a first glimpse into the Ice Age-inspired transformation underway in the lobby, where full-size, hair-on mastodons and Ice Age skeletons will soon roam our reimagined lobby. Enjoy a luxurious sit-down dinner, bid on unforgettable experiences at our brand-new Live Auction, and unwind in style at the bourbon and cigar lounge in the Bieser Room of Wonders.

Everyone is a VIP this year! We have a limited number of tickets available at $250. You’ll be part of an intimate, unforgettable night that supports our bold vision for the future of the Boonshoft Museum.

Funds raised will power the next phase of our museum transformation—bringing Dayton’s natural history and water story to life for generations to come.

Join us in shaping the future. Dress to impress. Discover the past.
