Why should the de Young and Academy of Sciences have all the after-dark fun in Golden Gate Park?
Next Wednesday night from 5:30pm until 8:30pm, the Conservatory of Flowers will keep their doors open after hours for SLURP!, a night out amongst the fiendish carnivorous plants in the Conservatory’s special exhibition Chomp 2.
Tickets are $5 per person but we’re giving away a pair for free plus a cool steel CHOMP! water bottle. Just send in your answer to the trivia question below via our Contact Us form by Monday, Sept. 20 at 5pm. We’ll draw the winner at random from the correct entries.
Q: Venus flytrap is the common name for the carnivorous plant pictured with this article. What is its scientific name?
At SLURP!, you can explore all of the Conservatory’s galleries, enjoy craft beer from local Clara Street Brewery, plus flash your smile for free souvenir photos from the trap-happy Magnolia Photo Booth.
Artists Sarah Filley and Yvette Molina of Wonderarium will also be on hand with their Mobile Plant Ambassador. The duo is working on a giant floating terrarium for Oakland’s Lake Merritt.
Enter to win tickets to SLURP! by Monday at 5pm. But if you don’t win, stop by next Wednesday night to enjoy the Conservatory galleries, some good beer and goofy self-portraits in San Francisco’s very own jungle under glass.
Sorry kids – SLURP! is for those 21 and over only.
