WHAT For more than four decades, the American Museum of Natural History's Museum Dance has captured the attention and imagination of 800 young New Yorkers for a spectacular evening of dinner, dancing, fun, and philanthropy at the Museum. This event celebrates and raises essential funds for the Museum's scientific and educational programs, which enable thousands of underserved New York City school children to visit the Museum annually. This year's theme is Spring Safari.

The event begins with an intimate dinner in Akeley Hall of African Mammals followed by dessert and dancing for all in the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life. Music provided by DJs Harley Viera-Newton and Cassie Coane. Throughout the evening, there will be a silent auction with luxury items from many of New York's most exclusive retailers.
