Explore the wild side of romance at Chemistry in Nature, an adults-only night celebrating the strange and spectacular world of animal mating behaviors. 💕Wander the museum and drop into pop-up storytelling sessions where experts share unbelievable courtship rituals—from birds that dance that attract the female gaze, to animals who take fighting for love to a whole new meaning.
Plus, put your own skills to the test with hands-on, interactive activities that let you experience the science of attraction firsthand. Test your nose at pheromone sniffing, guess animal mating calls, or discover which animal reflects your personal love language. Then embark on our Courtship Quest, a playful way to meet new people, spark conversations, and discover what “love in the wild” really looks like.
Follow the clues, and you may even unlock entry to a hidden speakeasy tucked within the museum—a cozy retreat for the curious and adventurous.
Whether you seek love, friendship, or science, join us for an evening where nature’s chemistry comes alive.
Tickets include light snacks, beer, wine, and our specialty cocktail. Additional food and beverages will be available for purchase.🍹
🎟 Members tickets: $70
🎟 Non-members: $75
This is an exclusive, after-hours event for adults ages 21+.
