Make a Date with History!

Turn your Thursday night into something special at the Putnam. Starting in October, we’re extending our Thursday hours until 8 PM and extending our Discovery Happy Hour pricing, with $5 off admission. It’s the perfect excuse to spice up your week and make it a date night to remember!

Join us for a different movie each week—whether you’re a fan of nail-biting blockbusters or timeless classics, we’ve got something for everyone! Arrive early to explore our interactive exhibits at a discounted rate. You’ll be discovering fun facts and amazing artifacts faster than you can say “museum magic!”

Plan to join us every third Thursday of the month for History on Tap, at a new time. Drinks at 5 pm with the lecture at 5:30pm.

And don’t forget to fuel your adventure with tasty snacks and refreshing drinks from our concession stand—because what’s a movie night without munchies? So, grab your friends, your family, or that special someone and make plans for a night filled with culture and entertainment.

All Thursday Night Movies start at 7:00 pm
$10 Adults  |  $9 Youth/Seniors
