Join us for a free night at two of the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture. Enjoy handcrafted mocktails by CraftHouse Bartending and desserts in the galleries. Take some snaps in our photo booth, or lounge around in our light-up chairs while participating in museum-themed crafts. Food and drinks are complimentary, but supplies are limited so come early and stay late!
