Every year, The Richard I. Bong center hosts its annual “Escape the Bong” event inside the museum.

“It’s my favorite weekend of the year; this is our fifth year in a row that we’ve been doing this. It’s a fundraiser event for our educational programs,” said John Gidley, the Executive Director of the Bong Center.

The escape room has four rooms that participants can choose from, two new rooms, and the return of two classics! The rooms are created by Tom Atwood and his wife, and the business is called Escape Room Parties. The escape rooms are family and kid-friendly.

The event runs from Friday at 10:00 am through Sunday at 7:00 p.m. Walk-ins and reservations are accepted are welcomed. Click here to register and book your escape room. Tickets are $28 for adults and $18 for those 15 years and under.

The escape room will run from 10 am to 9 pm, with the final set of games beginning at 8 pm on Saturday.
