Evenings at The Bakken: Space Is the Place

Unlock the secrets of the universe and find out why Space Is the Place during the last Evenings at The Bakken event of the year! This after-hours, adults-only celebration of World Space Week features craft cocktails and cool treats and is perfect for those who are curious about the cosmos. Act like an awe-struck kid again with hands-on fun like tiny comet-making, painting your own Aurora Borealis, building a Super Sound Cone to listen to stellar sounds just like NASA’s big satellites, and crafting a tiny constellation to take home and put up on your ceiling for some indoor stargazing. Then take a virtual tour of the galaxy with Minneapolis-based virtual reality company Visual VR, try space-age treats, get space suit fashion tips from the University of Minnesota’s Wearable Technology Lab, grab a snack from one of the visiting food vendors and sip on a craft beer, wine or a signature cocktail as you explore the museum.
