Science After Hours: Rhythms & Booms (TICKET REQUIRED)

**You will remain on the wait list until you have posted in the comments that you have purchased a ticket.** Get ready for a night where spring music festival energy meets world-class science! Our next outing takes us to **Science After Hours: Rhythms & Booms**. Think cinematic grooves in the Planetarium, live Brazilian Forró beats, and heart-pounding "booms" from the Franklin Institute’s legendary science team. We’ll be dancing through the exhibits, exploring the vibrational science of vinyl, and even seeing how drones fight wildfires—all with a drink in hand! **Why You Should Join Us:** This is the ultimate adults-only (21+) playground. Whether you’re a science nerd, a music lover, or just looking for a unique night out with a fantastic group of people, this event has it all. It’s a great way to explore the museum’s iconic exhibits—like the Giant Heart and Your Brain—without the daytime crowds, while enjoying live DJs, bands, and stunning rooftop stargazing. **What's the Plan?** We’ll meet up to explore the museum’s three floors of hands-on exhibits and special "Rhythms & Booms" programming. From the "Space Odyssey" experience in the Fels Planetarium to high-energy Taiko-inspired drumming, there is plenty to see and do. Between the "booms" and the beats, we’ll gather for drinks and conversation.
