About

It’s that time of year: Spring Bakkenalia! 

On May 28 from 5:30 to 9 p.m., get the rare chance to see what the museum becomes after hours.

Start the evening in the rooftop garden with blooming greenery, free drink sampling, and live music. As the sun sets, the energy shifts as interactive science activities come alive under the stars.

Explore the exhibits without the kids, grab something from the food trucks or cash bar, and catch special vault artifact presentations led by our curators.

By day, it’s a museum.
By night, it’s Bakkenalia.

Event is 21+. Free drink tastings included with ticket.
