Year-round special events Beyond the exhibits, Science Museum Oklahoma keeps visitors engaged with unique recurring events. The popular SMO21+ series offers adults- only evenings throughout the year giving guests 21 and over a chance to play like a kid (but with no kids) with a cocktail in hand. Upcoming event dates include June 26, August 28 and October 23. On March 28 the museum will introduce its smART Talks speaker series featuring renowned artist Jonty Hurwitz, a British South African artist, engineer and entrepreneur. The museum also hosts signature fundraising events like the Elemental Ball on March 27, giving the community the chance to enjoy the museum while supporting its mission as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
