STEM Meets Social Hour
Get out, get curious, and try something new with science nights for adults.
STEM at the science center isn’t just for kids—and it’s definitely not the dry, textbook kind. At North Dakota’s Gateway to Science, we offer engaging and memorable adult events designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and connection. Whether you’re looking to explore cutting-edge tech, get creative with AI art, learn lifesaving skills, or just enjoy a relaxed night out with friends, our adult programming brings science to life in engaging and unexpected ways.
These events are perfect for lifelong learners, date nights, team outings, or anyone who enjoys trying something new in a welcoming, hands-on environment. No science degree required—just a sense of curiosity and fun!
What to Expect at Adult Events
Each adult event at Gateway to Science is unique, but you can count on:
- Interactive, hands-on experiences
- Social settings that make learning relaxed and enjoyable
- Topics that blend science with everyday life—think coding, health & wellness, AI, food science, art, and more
- Knowledgeable facilitators who guide activities and encourage conversation
- Limited group sizes to keep things personal and engaging
You might find yourself debunking myths, experimenting over drinks, or mastering a new skill—all in a laid-back, welcoming space where curiosity leads the way.
