Nature Night Out

Join us on Thursday, March 19, from 6:00 to 8:30 PM for an adults-only evening at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. Enjoy refreshments from our friends at Spiteful Brewing while exploring the museum’s exhibits after hours, including the Judy Istock Butterfly Haven, and meet some of our live animals up close.

Stop by our crafting stations for a relaxed sip-and-paint experience — create your own birdhouse or paint a prairie landscape while enjoying a drink and good company. Whether you come with friends or make new ones, it’s a fun way to unwind and tap into your creativity. We're also excited to welcome back Holly Greenberg and her Birds of the Anthropocene project.

As a special bonus, the first 50 guests will receive a one-of-a-kind, branded Nature Night Out pint glass. We hope you'll join us for an engaging evening of nature, creativity, and community.



Every ticket comes with 1 complimentary alcoholic OR non-alcoholic beverage. Additional beverages and snacks will be available for purchase.

Whether you can join us the whole time or for only an hour, you're sure to enjoy your Nature Night Out!
