Martinis and Mollusks

The Museum has planned an exceptional evening of cocktails, individually-packaged appetizers, socially-distanced fellowship, and an exciting raffle.

Raffle tickets are available for $20/each at the Museum front desk, now through April 17th. Over $5,000 in prizes are on display in the Museum’s front lobby and include $100 gift certificates to several island restaurants, a Dolphin & Wildlife Adventure Cruise for 4 from Captiva Cruises, 18 holes of golf for 2 at the Dunes Golf and Tennis Club, a handmade bangle bracelet from Congress Jewelers, a $300 gift certificate from The Cedar Chest Fine Jewelry, and a private trip for 8 aboard Stars & Stripes from Sanibel Island Marina.

During the event, guests can tour the Museum, be wowed by the Giant Pacific Octopus, see record-breaking shells in the Great Hall, and enjoy the “H2O Art Exhibition,” on display until April 30th.

Of particular interest to many in the community will be the opportunity to meet and greet the Museum’s new Executive Director.

The Museum continues to follow CDC protocols to help ensure its guests stay healthy and safe during their visit. To this end, there will be limited outdoor seating available during Martinis and Mollusks upon request, as well as a takeout option for those who prefer to support the Museum from a distance. The commitment form for event tickets and sponsorship packages can be found at ShellMuseum.org.
