Louisiana Art & Science Museum Gala: Out of this World

The Louisiana Art & Science Museum's Out of this World Gala will celebrate the Irene W. Pennington Planetarium's twentieth anniversary of bringing celestial beauty and education to Baton Rouge, while raising funds for gallery renovations and other projects. Guests are encouraged to take inspiration for their outfits from the night sky—whether that be in the form of textures and colors, or costumes inspired by astronomy or the mythological gods and goddesses. Besides food and cocktails, the evening will entail a silent auction and raffle from Lee Michael's Fine Jewelry. Cocktail or costume attire. 7 pm–11pm, with a dome lighting ceremony and sponsor hour beginning at 6 pm. $154.50 for non-members. Raffle tickets are $51.50. lasm.org.
