About the Academy's Indoor Beer Garden: Dino Drafts
12th St. Catering and the Academy of Natural Sciences are celebrating
fourth Fridays this winter and spring by offering Dino Drafts: The Academy Beer
Garden inside the museum’s famous Dinosaur Hall. Come warm up inside, play
board games, and purchase beer, wine, and a specialty cocktail plus
mouthwatering bites (think tacos!) at the foot of a 40-foot-long T. rex and its
prehistoric friends. The entire museum will be open with pay-what-you-wish
admission (suggested donation is $10). Families are welcome—and if you like,
you can stop by for a drink and carry it with you as your group enjoys the museum.
Partial proceeds from Dino Drafts: The Academy Beer Garden benefit the Academy
of Natural Sciences. |
