A Night at the Museum
Children ages 6-13 and their parents or guardians are invited to experience New York City’s most enchanting sleepover program, A Night at the Museum.
Imagine roaming the halls of the American Museum of Natural History after everyone else has gone home!
As the doors close and the lights dim, you and your group will head out with flashlights in search of adventure. Meet your relatives in the Anne and Bernard Spitzer Hall of Human Origins. Climb the stairs and you’re in the Age of Dinosaurs, standing beneath a 65-million-year-old T. Rex. Then, as the night comes to a magical close, settle down beneath the 94-foot-long blue whale, next to African elephants, sleep among the Alaskan brown bears and mountain lion in the Hall of American Mammals or at the base of a striking volcanic formation in the Hall of Planet Earth.
