Clarksville Now
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) The Customs House Museum & Cultural Center’s annual winter fundraiser event, Champagne & Chocolate, will be delivered differently than in previous years. In place of the traditional live event usually held in late January at the museum, this year’s fundraising event will be delivered in boxes.
Valentines Delivered: Date Night in a Box will benefit the museum’s artifact conservation, collections, exhibits and educational programming, according to a press release sent by the Customs House.
Champagne & Chocolate can’t be held due to COVID-19 restrictions on large gatherings.
“For an alternative Valentine’s date night, the Museum is offering premium boxes along with a handful of themed luxury boxes so anyone can choose their own unique date night experience,” Museum Guild president Una Smith said in the release.
