San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum is thrilled to host its seventh annual Space Night on Saturday, December 9 from 5:00pm – 7:30pm.

This after-hours event, presented by ASML, provides families with the opportunity to participate in hands-on science, technology, reading, engineering, art, and math (STREAM) activities. Through the theme of space exploration, children ages 4-10 are offered early exposure to STREAM education.

The Museum’s STREAM programs and events are an introduction to science and engineering for many families, especially low-income, who may not have access to these hands-on programs.

“At the Museum, we pride ourselves in creating authentic hands-on learning experiences that spark a love of learning. Through events such as Space Night, we’re providing families with opportunities to build foundational skills in STEM education while feeding a natural wonder about all things from gravity to galaxies! We are so grateful to all the community partners who will be sharing their related expertise on the day,” said Shiri Puhovitsky, Community Programs Coordinator at San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum.

Through interactive activities children will learn about gravity and the moon, solar eclipses with NASA Solar System Ambassadors, coding and robotics, light pollution, and more! With a variety of activity booths, both children and parents will leave with a newfound knowledge and passion for all things space.

Pre-registration is required for this event. Tickets are $10 for members and $15 for non-members. Special discounts are available for military and veteran families.
