The BASH!

BASH-logo

Thank you for making The BASH – Pure Science. Pure Fun. Pure Party – a PURE SUCCESS!

THE BASH infused the sciences of taste and sound into one unforgettable evening. Our scientists treated the crowd to an exclusive Mixology show and liquid nitrogen frozen drink demonstrations. Guests enjoyed delectable cuisine and desserts from 22 of Toledo’s favorite restaurants. Multiple people walked away with exciting purchased from the live and silent auctions. And celebrity bartenders took countless orders for our signature drinks, the Molecular Martinis, served in a keepsake glass!

Our 100,000 square foot science center was the perfect backdrop for this high energy celebration with dance music by the KGB Band!

Better yet, this party had a purpose. Imagination Station is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to spark interest in science for kids! Proceeds from The BASH will be used to provide hands-on science education for the kids in our community who will become the world’s future scientists.

On behalf of the kids who visit us, the Imagination Station Board of Directors and our entire team, we would like to thank everyone who made this event a HUGE success!
