15th Annual YachtVenture

Join us for an evening that celebrates our coast, our community, and the wonder of childhood.

Step into an unforgettable evening along the Carolina coast at YachtVenture, The Children’s Museum of Wilmington’s signature fundraising event. Board some of the region’s most stunning yachts, sip handcrafted cocktails, enjoy delicious coastal cuisine, and dance under the stars, all while championing the power of play.

Bid on exclusive silent auction treasures, try your luck with raffles brimming with local flair, and soak in the magic of a night dedicated to making a difference.

​Children’s museums are more than places to play, they’re essential spaces where young minds grow, curiosity blossoms, and the foundations of lifelong learning are built. Your support helps ensure every child has a place to explore, imagine, and discover their world.

Note: Event is at Bradley Creek Marina, 6338 Oleander Drive, Wilmington, NC 28403
