Calling all curious minds looking for a unique night out! Mansion Mixers are your chance to explore Brucemore after hours while diving into fascinating stories from history. Each program includes time for self-guided tours of the mansion, an entertaining presentation from one of our public historians, mocktails in the Tahitian Room, and an activity tied to the evening’s theme. If you’re looking for a fun and casual way to learn something new while connecting with other history fans, then this event is for you!
Inspired by our fall collections feature, the November theme is Paws and Projectors!
Cedar Rapids legend says that Brucemore’s Leo was related to MGM’s Jackie, but is it true? We’ll explore this question and look at other Hollywood animals over drinks in the Tahitian Room. During your visit, check out artefacts connected to the other animals who called Brucemore home. This will be one of your last chances to see the items before they go back into storage! Round out the evening by testing your knowledge of Brucemore and animal actors in a friendly trivia competition.
