Set on the beautiful campus abutting 180 acres of conservation land, the night will host activities both inside the Discovery Museum, as well as throughout its outdoor nature playscape Discovery Woods and 550-square-foot treehouse. Enjoy live Caribbean steelpan music from PanNeubean Steel, drinks, pizza from Sal’s Pizza Truck, ice cream from Juniper Farms and games including a site-wide scavenger hunt with chances to win Red Sox tickets.
