After Dark: See for Yourself

The Exploratorium is your playground after dark! Wander the galleries, sip a cocktail, and let a DJ from Hip Hop for Change set the vibe. To experience some of our more time-sensitive exhibits in action, you’ll have to check your watch. Will you let yourself be enveloped by Fog Bridge #72494 at 7:00 p.m.? Can you catch the 22-foot-high Tinkerer’s Clock as it rings in the hour, or bear witness to geysers erupting in 20, 23, and 29-minute cycles? Time is of the essence!

We invite you to open your eyes to the amazing world of the ultra-tiny! Be sure to grab a miniscope kit and directions - then convert your cell phone into a portable, picture-taking miniscope using a simple plastic lens from a laser pointer. Use it to see the Exploratorium at its smallest scale, then take it home to continue exploring new environments!
