Cosmic Code Challenge

Unlock the secrets of the universe! This month’s Member Evening Hours will feature a special Cosmic Code challenge, generously supported by Nordstrom. As you explore the Museum’s halls, use the clues provided to find answers hidden within the displays. Collect the indicated letters from each answer to decode the secret message.

Share the answer to the challenge with Museum staff in the Ellen V. Futter Gallery (Floor 1) to collect your prize! The first 400 Members to participate will receive a $15 Nordstrom voucher, redeemable at the 57th Street (at Broadway) location, while supplies last.  

Please note: Guests receive one voucher per person with a completed activity. Guests must return their own activation to receive a voucher; no submissions on behalf of another guest are permitted.

The next Member Evening Hour date will be:
