The Exploratorium is known for capturing children's imaginations, but next Friday, it's hosting an adults-only fundraiser—the Science of Cocktails.
From 9 to midnight, the Exploratorium will offer more than 20 open bars serving innovative cocktails, small bites, and house-made beer by the facility's hOppenheimers Brew Club.
Open to guests 21 and over, the evening's proceeds will support the Exploratorium's education programs. More than 650 interactive exhibits will be open during the event, and organizers are adding a ball pit, photo booth, and live music provided by Tumbledown House and DJ Celeste.
All-inclusive tickets start at $175 with add-on VIP packages available.
It's a great weekend if you're a football fan, but if not, there's still plenty of art, films and music to keep a person entertained.

On Saturday, celebrate local Native American culture at Fort Mason with the 7th Annual Two-Spirit Powwow, take a free yoga class in the Outer Sunset or get a jump on Super Bowl festivities with North Coast Brewing's 1st Annual Super Chili Bowl.
