SUMMARY:Insider Science Tours:  Bats\, Bugs and Bones
DESCRIPTION:To get in the Halloween spirit\, get up close and personal with flesh-eating beetles\, spooky scary skeletons\, and your favorite creepy crawlies — think bats\, spiders\, and snakes. You’ll learn how researchers use these critters to understand the world around us\, and you may even get to watch a “mad scientist” (OK\, just a regular scientist) do a dissection. Tours are limited to 10 participants for a more personalized experience\, so don’t wait to secure a spot for this one-of-a-kind opportunity. \n\n\n\nPlus\, your ticket includes museum admission\, giving you plenty of time to explore our exhibit halls before or after your exclusive tour experience.

SUMMARY:Mystery at the Museum
DESCRIPTION:$50 for members$55 for non-members  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHands-on forensic science activities  \n\n\n\n\nDust for fingerprints\n\n\n\nAnalyze blood spatter\n\n\n\nMatch shoe prints\n\n\n\nConduct blood tests\n\n\n\nExamine evidence\n\n\n\n\nMedia Partner  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere’s been a murder at the museum\, and the investigating detective needs backup. During this immersive choose-your-own-adventure experience\, conduct scientific experiments and question five very questionable suspects\, each with a motive and something to hide. \n\n\n\nUnlike your typical murder mystery\, you won’t be assigned a role for this event. Dressing to the theme — like a dapper detective — is still encouraged\, but the focus for the evening is the hands-on science you will need to employ in order to uncover clues to who the culprit is. Throughout the evening\, you will have the opportunity to interact with suspects (our trained troupe of Science Live actors) to ascertain their relationships\, timelines\, motives\, and secrets. \n\n\n\nHelp crack the case at this after-hours immersive mystery. No acting required\, just bring your curiosity. \n\n\n\nThe fine print: Tickets include museum exploration and murder mystery experience. Additional food and beverages will be available for purchase. Every attendee must be 21 or older with a valid ID.
