Curiosity Camp-Out

This Overnight Adventure Will Be Stellar!

We’re going all out for this unforgettable night full of exploration and adventure. That’s right, instead of spending the night inside the Science Museum, we’re taking the fun outdoors!

Explorers are invited to grab their backpack, roll out their sleeping bag, pitch a tent and join us for hours of STEM discovery. Campers will experience a live demo, participate in hands-on activities, enjoy a Science On a Sphere® presentation, see a film in The Dome and more. Plus, campers get exclusive access to Science Museum exhibitions and labs without big crowds or lines.

Curiosity Camp-Out activities will be inside the building. Campers will sleep outside behind the Science Museum. The event runs from Saturday, May 10, at 6 p.m.–Sunday, May 11, at 9 a.m.
