A Night at the Museum

Ever wonder what happens at a museum when they close the doors for the day? The first-ever public overnight family experience “A Night at the Museum,” takes place tonight at the Buffalo Museum of Science. The night begins after the museum closes, and guests will help security guards close down the museum—but before guests reach the exhibit halls, they’ve become immersed in the middle of a museum mystery! Guests embark on a scavenger hunt throughout the museum and must complete science activities and tasks in various exhibit halls to gather clues. Once all activities are complete and the clues are gathered, everyone works together to solve the mystery.
After the mystery is solved, join everyone for a pizza party before more fun! Guests can enjoy a “Museum Dance Party,” crafts or a movie. The museum will also have several exhibits available to check out, including the “Palette of Life” exhibit and its hands-on “Color Lab.” At the end of the night, guests sleep surrounded by ancient fossils, real mummies, or even the Museum’s rare collection of dinosaur skeletons. Breakfast will be provided for guests on Sunday morning.
Each ticket includes admission for one adult and one child. Children must be at least 6 years of age and registration must be completed no later than April 4th. For more information, or to register, call 716-896-5200 ext. 345.
