Smithsonian Nighttime Adventures at the Natural History Museum are back!

Join fellow adventurers at one of the world's most visited museum as the doors close, the lights dim, and the crowds shuffle out for the day. Wander through the Fossil Hall, where dinosaurs cast giant shadows. Learn about Earth's past, discover the ocean's aquatic wonders, blast off to the moon, visit pollinators, and walk softly past mysterious mammals. Participate in games and challenges, immerse yourself in hand-on crafts and even learn how to eat like a T-rex while playing The Game of Survival.

Cost: $110/person (normally $150/person!)

Ages: 8 to 14 years old. There must be at least one adult for every five children in any group that registers. No siblings younger than 8. No adults without children. Every person coming must register.
