Cool Summer Nights at the Desert Museum
Next Upcoming
The Desert Museum is lovely during the day, but it’s even cooler after dark!
Cool Summer Nights
Open till 9:00 p.m. on Saturdays
June 10 - August 26, 2023
The Desert Museum is lovely during the day, but it’s even cooler after dark! Join the Desert Museum every Saturday night throughout the summer to beat the heat while learning something neat! The desert comes alive at night as nocturnal animals awake. Bats perform aerial acrobatics in pursuit of dinner, beavers splash around in their pond, and scorpions glow green under black light. Bring your flashlight and explore, grab a local beer and wander, experience a live animal encounter, scamper in Packrat Playhouse, feel the touch of a stingray, or participate in special nightly activities.
Visit the website for theme information.
Pro Tip: Don't forget to take the scenic drive to the Desert Museum via Marana! Follow Sandario Road to Kinney for saguaro views and less traffic.
