Join your friends at the Montshire Museum of Science for our Science on Tap evening events with drinks, casual conversations about contemporary topics in science and society, and open exhibits. Science on Tap – Montshire After Hours events are open to adults 21+ and include short presentations by guest speakers, open exhibits, and a cash bar (wine and beer) provided by the Norwich Inn. Tickets are $10/person (includes one complimentary drink) and are available at the door. The Museum doors open at 6:30 p.m., with the featured scientist speaking at 7 p.m. The Museum remains open following the speaker until 9 p.m. Co-sponsored by the Hopkins Center for the Arts, Dartmouth College

Join us for a sneak peak and discussion of the Everett Dance Theatre’s Brain Storm, a dance performance that explores the latest research in brain science. Critically acclaimed Everett Dance Theatre takes audiences on a journey into the universe’s most complex structure: the human brain, in all its mystery and beauty. With current neuroscience research as its inspiration, Brain Storm features striking physicality, poetic imagery, and compelling stories. Everett combines their inventive use of sculptural set elements and video projections with humor and insight into human experiences. The work is informed by interviews with leading brain scientists, as well as a two-year residency at New Hampshire’s Crotched Mountain School, a facility for brain injury rehabilitation and education.
