Dearest Gentle Science Enthusiast,

Pray, prepare yourself for an evening most enchanting.

Step into a night of mystery, glamour, and spectacle at Masquerade Ball, a most extraordinary COSI After Dark affair on Thursday, June 11. Inspired by Bridgerton-esque refined elegance and the dazzling pageantry of a Venetian carnival, this unforgettable soirée marries classical opulence with the delights of modern revelry.

You are cordially invited to don your most exquisite mask and finest attire, as the museum is transformed into a world of music and immersive amusements. At the heart of the evening, a live string quartet performs a spellbinding repertoire, where sweeping classical arrangements entwine with modern melodies, filling the air with romance and intrigue. Their music drifts through the galleries like a whispered secret, beckoning guests to dance, linger, and lose themselves in the moment.

For behind every mask lies a mystery…and within every corridor, a new intrigue awaits discovery.

Join us for an evening of romance, revelry, and late-night wonder at COSI, where melodies enchant, secrets shimmer, and society gathers.

Yours most sincerely,
COSI After Dark
