During Winter Nights, the Museum will remain open until 7:00 pm with seasonal themes, cookie decorating, storytelling, drink tastings, music, a chance to experience new exhibitions, and engaging activities for all ages!

The Rimrock Café will be open for folks to grab a treat. Silver Sage Trading, the Museum store, will also be open for all your holiday shopping needs. Museum visitors can also look forward to regional craft beverage vendors sampling their seasonal concoctions!

Tonight’s Theme: Snowology

How do you spell winter love? Snowology! Icy snowflakes on the tongue? Like totally. The soothing sound of snow falling? For suuure. The wahoo of an impromptu snow angel? Oh yeah. Wrap yourself in the colors of the season (think silver or white – pajamas, onesies, track suits, all are welcome!) as we savor the ways winter can be warm and wonderful. We’ll start with cookie decorating, gift wrapping, dance parties, beverage tastings, and photo-boothing like Jack Frost.
