Nature Night Out
Join us on Thursday, January 15th, from 6:00 to 8:30 PM for an adults-only evening at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. Guests will enjoy refreshments while exploring the museum’s exhibits, including the new and improved Sustainability Center, as well as “By A Thread: Nature’s Resilience”, a new exhibit launched on June 20th that highlights the science of biodiversity and the work being done to protect it.
Special for the January 2026 Nature Night Out:
- Join Holly Greenberg and contribute to her ongoing conservation and community art project Bird Collisions in the Anthropocene!
- Hang out with Urban Sketchers Chicago and take some time to observe and document where you are and what’s going on!
Every ticket comes with 1 complimentary alcoholic OR non-alcoholic beverage. Additional beverages and snacks will be available for purchase.
Whether you can join us the whole time or for only an hour, you’re sure to enjoy your Nature Night Out!
