Sleepover in the coolest place in the solar system—without having to be an astronaut!
NYSCI has the perfect, wonder-filled night for every young scientist, right here in Queens.

The brief:

Science Scavenger Hunt

Grab your notebook, magnifying glass and lab coat. We begin a journey through the museum to discover the secrets of science; everything from how ants communicate to the magic of optical illusions.

3D Pajama Party

After scouring the museum for clues to the mysteries of the universe, it's time to snuggle in your PJs with milk and cookies in front of NYSCI's very own 3D theater. Witness ancient dinosaurs, giant creatures of the sea and wild tornadoes come to life!

Lights Out

 

Rise n Shine: NYSCI Behind the Scenes

Time to roll up the sleeping bags as we fire up the bunsen burners and prepare for the days activities. Explore the exhibits with the whole museum to yourself before we open the doors to the public.
