PARTY LIKE IT’S
1980-SOMETHING

emember leg warmers? Rubik’s Cubes? Pac-Man?
How about John Hughes movies, boom boxes and
when MTV played music? The music, the fashion
and the fads of the 80s will all be part of The
New Children’s Museum’s annual Studio 200 on
November 10. This year’s theme is Totally 80s Birthday Bash,
where the Museum will transform into a vibrant, after-hours club
celebrating the best of the 80s. The Museum has a 10-year history
of throwing out-of-the-ordinary parties, fully immersing themselves
in a theme and encouraging guests to wear costumes.

As guests enter the party, they will be greeted with a signature
birthday cocktail, toasting the Museum’s 35th birthday in San
Diego and 10th birthday as The New Children’s Museum.
Local 80s mix master DJ Junior the Disco Punk will kick off
the evening, followed by popular 80s tribute band BetaMAXX
(teased hair, spandex and all) playing everyone’s favorite 80s
songs. There will be 80s-inspired surprises and appearances
throughout the night, as well as classic 80s photo ops (think Top
Gun and Michael Jackson).
