A Benefit For

Join us for Champagne Supernova, the brightest party in the galaxy, on October 10, 2024!

Delight in a strolling dinner, bubbly beverages, and decadent desserts in our beloved Berkeley science center. Feel “wow”-ed like a kid again, as you experience our surprising science pop-up encounters. And do it all knowing that you’re making an important impact in children’s lives.

Champagne Supernova is a grown-up party benefiting The Lawrence’s programs: inspiring children with science, and advancing equity and opportunity in science education.
