After Dark: See for Yourself

After Dark: See for Yourself
Thursday, September 29, 2022 . 6:00-10:00 p.m.
Adults Only (18+)

Note: Free for members and donors-only a membership card and ID required for entry. The Tactile Dome is currently closed.

The Exploratorium is your playground after dark! Wander the galleries, sip a cocktail, and let a DJ from Hip Hop for Change set the vibe. To experience some of our more time-sensitive exhibits in action, you'll have to check your watch. Will you let yourself be enveloped by Fog Bridge #72494 at 7:00 p.m.? Can you catch the 22-foot-high Tinkerer's Clock as it rings in the hour, or bear witness to geysers erupting in 20, 23, and 29-minute cycles? Time is of the essence!

Cell Phone Miniscope
6:00-10:00 p.m.
Crossroads

We invite you to open your eyes to the amazing world of the ultra-tiny! Be sure to grab a miniscope kit and directions-then convert your cell phone into a portable, picture-taking miniscope using a simple plastic lens from a laser pointer. Use it to see the Exploratorium at its smallest scale, then take it home to continue exploring new environments!

DJ Shortkut
From Hip Hop for Change
6:30-7:45 and 8:15-9:30 p.m.

Get ready to dance your way through the night as DJ Shortkut from Hip Hop for Change sets the vibe and keeps the party moving! Shortkut is a Bay Area DJ legend, an innovator in the genre, and a founding member of the Invisibl Skratch Piklz and Triple Threat DJ crews.
