Friday, August 22; 5-9 p.m.
Ages 18+
Get wild and join us for Nerd Nite Lehigh Valley: Party Animals, an unforgettable after-hours party for ages 18 and up at Da Vinci Science Center at PPL Pavilion. Explore our exhibits after dark and enjoy two unique shows to keep the night roaring.
Otters in the City: A Wild Plan for Downtown Allentown
Our Director of Living Collections, Brandon Swayser, will share the story of creating the Lehigh River Watershed exhibits and what it took to bring our otters and other wildlife to the heart of the city.
Then, get ready to laugh out loud with the one and only Glen Tickle—stand-up comic and science enthusiast!
The Party Animals fun continues with:
- Special animal encounters
- Music and dancing with DJ Romeo G
- Your first drink included with your ticket (cash bar available after that)
- Themed food options available for purchase
Get your pic with an otter! For a small donation, get a memorable photo taken with one of our otter friends in the background (safely behind glass). We snap the picture, you strike your best pose. (Limited availability)
Please note: We can’t guarantee the otters will pose (or stay in frame), but you’ll go home with a wild memory, some cool otter facts, and a photo to remember your visit!
Let your wild side out—this is one science party you don’t want to miss!
