Circle of Friends, the philanthropy organization dedicated to supporting Kidspace Children’s Museum, kicked off its 2024-2025 year with their Annual Family Picnic at Kidspace on Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024. Circle of Friends members’ families enjoyed private access to Kidspace’s interactive exhibits, including the final day of the museum’s special summer Campout experience complete with an engaging singalong musical performance around a fanciful faux campfire. In addition to exploring the playful museum, families caught up over dinner from the beloved In-N-Out Truck.
Established in 1991, Circle of Friends has raised more than $5 million in support of Kidspace’s operating budget. The volunteer organization’s purpose is strictly charitable and consists of approximately 100 women from Pasadena, South Pasadena, Altadena, San Marino, La Cañada Flintridge, Glendale and the surrounding communities.
