Experiment and explore during nightLAB.
Prepare to be blown away at nightLAB: Forces of Nature, an adults-only (21+) evening inspired by the wild mechanics of wind, waves, storms and motion. Explore the museum after hours as science comes alive through high-energy experiments, interactive programming and special experiences throughout the building.
Journey into the Frost Planetarium for Wildest Weather in Our Solar System, produced by National Geographic, and witness the beautiful, powerful and mysterious weather phenomena shaping worlds beyond our own. Connect with community partners, wander through select exhibitions at night and experience the museum in a whole new way.
It’s also your final chance to discover the force of nature that was Leonardo da Vinci before the special exhibition, Leonardo da Vinci – 500 Years of Genius, closes on Sunday, April 5.
Connect with friends and get ready to enjoy science socially. Share your favorite photos and moments with us on social media at @frostscience.
