Guests will also be treated to a performance by Samba Viva, a quartet of samba dancers and two drummers.
The event includes a silent auction where everyone can bid on one-of-a-kind works of art and exciting experience packages such as a six-course, fully customized plated dinner for 10; and a cupcake wars decorating party. The Museum will also be raffling off an array of prizes.
