About Exploratorium After Dark Find out what’s happening at Exploratorium After Dark. New, extended evening hours on the first Thursday of every month mix cocktails, conversation, and adult-oriented programming in science and the arts. Each night will showcase a different theme, which might include live performances, films, and new media, or feature cutting-edge technology and unexpected extravaganzas. Programs will be playful, unusual, and content-rich, and address the science behind topics of adult interest—from gambling, alcohol, fashion, and sex to extreme sports and gaming. Not a theater, a cabaret, or a gallery, After Dark involves aspects of all three, with a mood unlike anything else in the city. Where else can you find music, a cash bar, and an intellectually stimulating playground for adults—all with free parking? This event is included in the price of admission to the Exploratorium.
