Happy New Year!

NOON Year's Eve


Ring in the New Year at NOON with our annual Noon Year’s Eve celebration! Each year we count down to noon with not one, but two balloon drops: a raucous, music-filled celebration in the Main Gallery and a quieter, sensory-friendly countdown in Da Vinci’s Garage, where we whisper the numbers and celebrate with jazz hands instead of noise.


We’ll also host our annual Egg Drop Challenge, where participants engineer “spacecraft” to protect their brave “egg-stronauts” during a crash landing. Whether the egg survives or splats, we cheer for every launch, because that’s what scientific exploration is all about!


Wednesday, December 31
11 AM to 2 PM
Free with membership or admission


No advance ticket sales are available for this event, so come early to beat the lines!
