Member Celebration

Member Celebration Thursday, June 11 4:00 pm-8:00 pm RSVP Required Member Celebration is the Hastings Museum’s signature summer event and one of the many perks of Museum membership. Each year, Members are invited to enjoy a tasty meal, free activities, and a complimentary Planetarium show while also getting the very first look at our exciting summer exhibit. This special evening is our chance to celebrate and thank our Members and supporters for everything they do to help make the Museum possible. This year’s Member Celebration takes place on Thursday, June 11 from 4:00-8:00 PM and features an evening full of exploration, entertainment, and discovery inspired by dinosaurs, science, and the universe beyond. Guests can enjoy the opening of our thought-provoking temporary exhibit Sorting Out Race, experience our newest large-format film T-REX in 3D, and attend the debut of the Planetarium show Messengers of Time and Space. There will also be a special presenter before each film screening. The evening includes a free soul food-themed meal served from 5:00-7:30 pm featuring pulled-pork sandwiches prepared by Nebraska Pork Producers, along with fruit salad, vegetables, mac and cheese, and coleslaw. Plus, enjoy ice cream generously donated by Hiland Dairy. Guests can also enjoy live music and festive entertainment from the Jambalaya Pep Band throughout dinner service! Not a Member yet?
