Whether it’s a date or a get-together with friends, the galleries of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force offer a remarkable venue for this special night out. Leave the kids at home for this 21+ event.

You’ll be amazed by strolling magician Eric Scites. Rise to the challenge of skill games like the Bernoulli Canon, Connect 4, or Jenga. You and your friends can test your knowledge in a trivia contest with fabulous prizes! Expand your understanding of American culture with Museum Historian Doug Lantry, Ph.D., who will explain the impact of iconic bomber movies in a fun and entertaining way – this will not be your father’s WWII talk.

And you’ll have the extraordinary opportunity for an up-close-and-personal encounter with two of the Museum’s legendary icons – the Memphis Belle™ and the Strawberry Bitch. We’ll have adult beverages for you to choose from, including craft beers locally brewed by Rhinegeist Brewery, along with a selection of wine at the cash bar. Various hors d’oeuvres, and snacks, including peanuts from Texas Roadhouse, will be available.

If you want a memento of this special evening, customized wooden bottle openers or beer flight trays handmade by AR Workshop of Centerville will be available ($35 ea). Order ahead of the event and have your name screen printed on one. Tickets are $35 per person, click here to purchase yours.
