Night at the Museum

Step into an evening of discovery at Körner’s Folly during A Night at the Museum, a family-friendly program filled with exploration, play, and a little nighttime magic inside a one-of-a-kind home. Held after hours, this special event brings excitement and discovery to one of America’s most imaginative historic houses.

Families are invited to experience Körner’s Folly after dark with special self-guided tours through the home’s fascinating rooms and hidden corners. Along the way, guests can enjoy scavenger hunts, historic toys, and interactive activities designed to bring the past to life.

Outside, the grounds come alive with yard games and family fun, creating the perfect opportunity for children and adults alike to play, explore, and discover together. Whether you are solving clues, trying out games from the past, or simply wandering through one of America’s most unique historic homes at night, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Alongside classic yard games, bubbles, and open space for play, Soft Golf will be on site, adding an extra layer of fun and friendly competition for people of all ages. With their glow-in-the-dark setup, attendees can test their skills in a closest-to-the-pin challenge or join a best shot contest using a variety of uniquely sized clubs and equipment.

Guests are invited to enjoy a picnic-style meal on the grounds or inside the John & Bobbie Wolfe Community Room. Additionally, hands-on art activities using glow-in-the-dark paint and supplies will also be available for families to enjoy. Food and beverage trucks will be on site with additional items available for purchase.

Bring the whole family and experience history in a whole new light at Family Day: A Night at the Museum. It will be an evening filled with curiosity, laughter, and adventure!
