Spend an unforgettable night at the Museum!

Participate in science activities for the entire family as you explore the Museum after hours.

Then, unroll your sleeping bag beneath a giant spiral of DNA, a case of sparkling butterflies, or the watchful eyes of an elk. Before you settle in for the night, gather around a virtual campfire for a story. The next morning, enjoy a continental breakfast and then set out for the rest of your day full of memories of your sleepover adventure! 

Family Sleepovers Include:

• After-hours access to the Museum
• Hands-on family activities
• Evening snack and continental breakfast
• Overnight stay among the Museum exhibits

Adults cannot attend unless there is a child in their party; no unaccompanied children may participate in the sleepover.

All Family Sleepovers begin at 6:30 pm on a Friday and conclude at 8:30 am on Saturday morning.  See below for upcoming Family Sleepover dates!
