The Science Museum goes Adults-only tonight!
by Kate Iverson on Jun.22, 2011, under Arts & Culture
Ditch your kids and prance on over to the Science Museum tonight for Social Science, a libatious evening of adults-only scientific fun. The second in the museum’s after-hours 21+ series, tonight’s solstice-themed soiree will have plenty of charmingly educational activities, not to mention multiple cash bars scattered throughout the building.
Start out the night by crafting your own flower wreath with the American Swedish Institute peeps, who will guide you on how to make a stunning (and sweet-smelling) crown for the evening. Once you’re adorned, hop on board for a guided tour of the museum’s collection vault, where scientific secrets a-plenty have been squirreled away.
Grab a martini and venture out into the “Big Back Yard” where an artsy mini-golf course is at your disposal, or test your brain power with science trivia with the crew from Trivia Mafia, see Science Theater Live presentations, play science-y pictionary, get down to hi-fi/lo-fi DJs and oh-s0-much more.
Tasty small bites will be on hand from local treat-makers, or if you want something more substantial, the museum’s in-house restaurant, Chomp, will be open for business as well.
Tickets will be sold at the doors on June 22 or can be purchased in advance by calling (651) 221-9444 or (800) 221-9444. Tickets range from $12 (Social Science only) up to $27 (Social Science, King Tut, and Omnitheater film).
