The main feature of the event will be the Treasure Hunt in the Museum. This activity will encourage participants to read the displays to answer questions.
Local company Magnetic Storm will provide special effects during the hunt with the use of sound, lighting and audio-visual equipment.
The funds generated at the event will be used to purchase a fireproof cabinet for the Museum’s Otolith Collection, which comprises more than 19 000 ear bones collected from marine life.
Any additional funds will go towards the maintenance of the Snake Park and the Museum.
Night at the Museum will take place on Saturday, July 23, from 5pm to 10pm. Entry is R25. Children under the age of three may enter free.
