August 21, 2023

Oklahoma City, OK – Are you ready for a night with the class and charm of your favorite speakeasy joint, infused with the excitement of bootleg bathtub gin? Science Museum Oklahoma’s SMO21+: Distill the Night is set for 7-10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 25.

The adults-only night at the museum will be a fascinating journey through the science and history of distillation. Guests will learn intriguing facts about the captivating world of moonshining and learn how the art of distillation has shaped the drinks people love today.

The full museum will be open during SMO21+, giving guests the opportunity to explore the museum’s exhibits and galleries. But what's a night all about distillation without a dazzling array of drinks to choose from? In addition to the themed activities, a cash bar will be set up all night long.

Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 the day of the event. VIP tickets are sold out, but those guests will receive a complimentary signature cocktail, discounted refills and early access to all the amazing activities. 

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for those with VIP tickets and 7 p.m. for general admission. Ticket sales end at 7:30 p.m. No outside food or drink are permitted for adult events. There will be no reentry for this event.

SMO21, the museum’s adults-only, after-hours program for ages 21 and up, is a chance for adults to explore SMO without children. For more information about SMO21+ or to purchase tickets, visit http://www.smo.org/smo21.
