After hours at the CU Museum: a series of specially curated programs for students to stimulate curiosity and connections on campus

Take a break from the usual Thursday routine. Museum After Hours is series of monthly drop-in events for CU Boulder students featuring snacks, games, DIY crafts, books, films, and other special activities. Come explore, hang out, try something new, or just enjoy a relaxed evening with Museum Buffs. Bring a friend, or come as you are and meet someone new! Free for students. Space is limited for some activities. Bring your BuffOne card.

Sep 10 - Bookmarks & Silent Book Club: Settle in for a cozy evening at the museum! Make your own bookmark, then settle in for 45 minutes of quiet reading with other book lovers. Bring a book, e-book, or audiobook, and stay afterward to share recommendations and chat.

Oct 8 - Spooky Felt Stitch: Get crafty with a spooky twist! Make your own felt-stitch creation inspired by ghosts, bats, and other Halloween favorites. No crafting experience necessary. Just pick a project and have some fun.

November 5 - Art Night: Bring your creativity and make some art! Sketch, color, watercolor, doodle, or try something completely your own. We may also have a student-led guided exercise inspired by the museum’s botanical collections. Come create, experiment, and hang out.

December 3 - Silent Disco (& Hot Cocoa): Need a little fun before finals? Grab some hot cocoa, put on a pair of headphones, and dance your way through the museum. Come for the music, stay for the cocoa, or just hang out and enjoy a fun night with friends.
