Monster Ball
Get ready to howl at the moon!
Monsters of all ages are invited to our annual Halloween celebration! Monster Ball transforms the museum into a spooky playground filled with hands-on activities, crafts, workshops, performances, and more.
Come dressed in your most creative costume and join the contest, judged by OSF costume pros Jessie Weigel and Callie Segotta, with OSF actor James Ryen returning as emcee.
Experience three “Bite-Sized ScienceLIVE” performances: Ghost Bubbles, Van de Graaff Generator, and the Vacuum Chamber. Explore our walk-through haunted house in the Celebration Room, try karaoke in the Jam Room, and be among the first to see our newly renovated cave exhibit highlighting Oregon’s unique geology and biodiversity.
Check back often for updates — more surprises and spooky fun will be revealed soon!
Save the date:
Saturday, October 25
4 to 8 PM
Costumes encouraged. Wonder guaranteed.
Help ScienceWorks Get Spooky for Monster Ball!
Got extra Halloween decorations haunting your attic or garage? ScienceWorks is on the hunt for gently used décor to help transform the museum into a spooky-fun wonderland for Monster Ball!
We’re looking for pumpkins, cobwebs, skeletons, lights, and other festive frights. Donations can be dropped off at the front desk during museum hours (Wed - Sun, 10 Am to 5 PM).
Check out some highlights from our last celebration!
Whether you were spooky, silly, sparkly, or strange, we loved haunting the night with you at last year's Monster Ball!
