If you think Melbourne Museum is a destination only for the pram-pushing set, think again.
For one night only on Thursday 1 March, Melbourne Museum is hosting SmartBar a summer pop-up bar that presents drinks and DJ tunes along with a dose of science and history, taxidermy and a dissection. Dazzle your friends with your wealth of knowledge, browse the Science and Life gallery exhibits after hours without tripping over toddlers or just enjoy a bar experience that’s a little bit different.

A limited number of tickets are available by phone 13 11 02 or online or you can enter this giveaway!
Thanks to Melbourne Museum, I have 2 x double passes to the SmartBar to give away. To win, all you have to do is leave a comment and the winners will be drawn randomly on Monday 27 February. Good luck!
6:00 PM – 10:00 PM
SCIENCE AND LIFE GALLERY












Love the idea, cute and creepy all at once.
Finally, science nerds can get their drink on!
Kitsch + little nerdy = cool. Gotta love Melbourne Arts scene!
This lands on mine and my boyfriend’s 1 year anniversary. The museum was the one of our first dates places! I’d absolutely love to win these tickets
Brilliant!
I went to a simliar night at the Cal Academy of Sciences and it was awesome.

sounds like fun.
All of my kids have finally left home, an adult night out sounds great!
Yes please!
Good idea. Hope the pieces come together (or apart for dissection) and it all works well …
I adore this idea, and strongly believe they should make it a permanent fixture. Imagine if it were every Thursday night, or if they created a “Smart Bar” popup somewhere central like in the QV or Arts Centre foreground – it’s the perfect tone & concept for Melbourne to really get its teeth into.

Love it! Anything combining the Arts and Science is great!
Sounds perfect. Knowledge is fun
Hey – I was in the “Wild” exhibition when they were shooting the promo for the SmartBar for The Age. I was in the city writing challenge questions for Melbourne Romp. http://cityromp.com/
