Hey San Diego, relive your favorite memories of summer camp with good food, great local beer and fun people. It's summer camp without the counselors AND it's just for adults on June 16 at the San Diego Natural History Museum in Balboa Park.
This edition of The Secret Society of Adultologists will allow you to relive your favorite memories of summer camp. Museum scientists will share rattlesnakes and spiders from our collections. Our rooftop bar will serve specialty cocktails and an exclusive IPA from Thorn Brewing. Activities include Nerf archery, color war, friendship bracelet making, and so much more. Full list of programs and activities below.
Science, craft beer and cocktails, music, storytelling, food, crafts, and art.
The Secret Society of Adultologists is a whole new way to experience The Nat – stay late and rediscover your sense of wonder.
Tickets are $15 for members and $25 for non-members. They include access to all events and activities, and a raffle ticket for a prize drawing. Food and beverage will be available for purchase.
