As managing director and market executive with Merrill Lynch Global Wealth and Investment Management, Anthony Bland leads six wealth management offices in Florida’s Broward and Dade counties. Committed to serving his community outside of work, Anthony Bland formerly sat on the board of directors for the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS) in Fort Lauderdale.
MODS features a new program just for adults called Discovery after Dark. A quarterly series of science-focused nights out for people who are 21 or older, Discovery after Dark allows participants to mingle with other science-lovers while enjoying delicious food and adult beverages.
The museum’s inaugural event, Science of Beer, was held on November 8. The next event, slated for January 24, 2019, is Design Zone, which investigates the design involved in the arts, extreme sports, and entertainment industries. Other upcoming Discovery after Dark programs include Kaboom - Explosive Science (April 25) and Hall of Heroes (July 18). All of the adults-only evening events are held from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friends of MODS members are eligible to attend one Discovery after Dark session for free.
