Night of Nostalgia: School's Back in Session for Grown Ups
Tuesday, August 11 | 6–9 PM | Ages 21+

Dust off your school spirit and get ready for a grown-up night at the museum! Night of Nostalgia is taking over the Discovery Center for an interactive, multi-level evening inspired by your favorite school days—with a major upgrade.

Leave your textbooks at home and grab your official STEAM Report Card as you explore all four levels of the museum. You’ll tackle quick science and tech challenges for extra credit, skip the awkward yearbook poses at the professional photo station, and relive gym class by racing to the top of the Magic Climber. Along the way, enjoy live music, a high-stakes live auction, a gift card pull, and gourmet, elevated twists on classic "cafeteria" food.

Admission includes food stations, a signature science cocktail, and wine on the electives floor. Want to earn a bonus entry into our big door prize drawing? Show your school pride by rocking your favorite vintage school gear or alma mater colors.

Whether you were the teacher’s pet or class clown, come celebrate, support, and explore in a whole new way—all proceeds help support future exhibits, programs, and access initiatives at the Discovery Center.

Space is limited—get your tickets now and don’t be tardy!
