Our history

Cheers to 30 years of making a difference! Happy Pearl Anniversary, Glamour Nite! Since 1994, we've been on a mission to enrich and empower the lives of children and adults. We've empowered over 250 science Licensees globally, impacting the lives of over 40 million people. And now, with Glamour Nite, we're extending our mission to help women feel confident, embrace their unique beauty, and achieve their goals, no matter how big or small. But we can't do it without YOU.

To become the premier event planning company nationally known for setting the standard in elegance, creativity, and flawless execution in the events industry.

 Top Secret Kids was founded by Michael Bergen in June 1994, driven by a profound realization of the need for comprehensive science opportunities and programs for elementary school children. While schools and science museums were doing an admirable job in life sciences, there was a glaring gap in fostering a broader understanding of science. Michael embarked on this journey armed with innovative ideas to transform ordinary science activities into unforgettable learning experiences.

At Top Secret Kids, we are a well-established educational non-profit with a 30-year history of empowering and educating children and adults in the field of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Our chemistry programs, such as the exciting new venture, Glamour Nite, have been an integral part of our mission since our inception.

Over the years, we have left an indelible mark on science education. Our programs have led to dramatic increases in children's science attitudes, skills, and knowledge levels. To date, both children and adults have actively engaged in and taken home more than 5 million experiments, enriching their scientific knowledge and curiosity.

We have proudly served over 800 preschools, elementary and middle schools, summer camps, recreation centers, and scouting organizations across New England and New York. In our commitment to educating and inspiring, we have conducted over 20,000 school and group programs. Furthermore, we have hosted nearly 1,000 hands-on family science nights, with an average participation of 150 enthusiastic individuals at each event.

Building on our rich legacy of science education, we are thrilled to introduce Glamour Nite—an innovative fusion of glamour and science. This exciting endeavor brings a unique twist to your traditional nite out. Our chemistry-themed Glamour Nite events offer an opportunity for adults to experience the joy of creating all-natural beauty products while enjoying the company of friends and family. It's an evening filled with laughter, creativity, and scientific discovery and we thank you for being a part of this incredible journey!
