Dust off wands for Science of Magic
Oklahoma families will be able to don their robes and dust off their wands from 6 to 10 p.m. Dec. 14 at Science Museum Oklahoma’s Science of Magic Late Nite Lab.
Designed for families with children of all ages, Science Museum Oklahoma’s Late Nite Lab program will offer a variety of unique activities connected to each lab’s theme, as well as access to the museum’s permanent exhibits and live shows.
During the Science of Magic Late Nite Lab, guests can craft chemistry concoctions, meet some almost-magical creatures, cast spells with computer programming, make and try a favorite wizard beverage, try their hands and wands at magical dueling, get slimy with troll snot and much more. Family friendly costumes are welcome.
“The holiday season is magical — we’re making it even more so for wizard fan families with this Late Nite Lab,” said Kirsten Therkelson, museum educator.
“We have lots of bewitching, hands-on activities planned that are perfect for wizards of all ages. The museum will be decorated for the holidays and winter is the perfect time to pull the robes out of the trunks for a special night of magical fun.”
In addition to the magic-inspired activities, the night will include shows in the museum’s recently upgraded Kirkpatrick Planetarium at 7 and 8 p.m. and a Science Live show at 9:30 p.m. Seating is on a firstcome, first-served basis for all shows.
Tickets must be purchased in advance and are $18 per person for museum members, $20 for nonmembers, and children younger than 3 will be admitted for free. Ticket sales will end at noon Dec. 14. Guests are encouraged to arrive by 7 p.m. to the museum, 2020 Remington Place.
