Night of the Living Museum


We attended Night of the Living Museum for the first time this year an my kids can't wait to go back. Every October, for one weekend only the Living Museum opens from 5:30-8:30 for not-so-creepy crawlies, candy and game stations, themed music and activities, the regular museum exhibits, and a science show. 



Upon entering, you'll see the special Halloween exhibit in the changing exhibit room, full of animals that are sometimes considered "creepy." Think of tarantulas, snakes, lizards, and frogs. From there you'll want to walk around the museum to all of the candy stations and have your passport stamped. Once you fill this out- trade it in for a king size candy bar before you leave the museum. Outside you'll see the walking pathways all lit up and some special Halloween decor by the dinosaurs. You'll want to play the outdoor games and activities on the way to the planetarium or head inside to catch a science show. If you missed this event, but are looking for something similar, be sure to check out
