The #FirstFridays 2024 season, “From Feelings to Pheromones” culminates in June with “How We Multiply.” Guests will have one last opportunity to experience First Fridays this year and explore NHM after hours with live performances, DJs, topical discussions, signature cocktails, food trucks, and more.
The season’s theme explores the forces that shape the behaviors and sex lives of life forms, large and small. On June 7, neuroscientist and moderator Dr. Yewande Pearse will be joined by Dr. Aradhna Tripati, founder of UCLA’s Center for Diverse Leadership in Science, to discuss “The Population Problem and Possible Solutions.” They’ll be examining the connections and misunderstandings regarding population and climate change as Earth’s human population reaches 8 billion.
Catch a vibe with live outdoor musical performances from Wallice, preceded by Niia. Set the mood right with a DJ set from opener Gingee. Experience an indoor Sensory Lounge in the Grand Foyer featuring a captivating blend of visual art presented by LAVA, a soundscape presented by Femme House, featuring the artist GeeXella and local vendors Herbalaria and ChocoVivo. Browse NHM collections displays, take an evening tour, enjoy local food trucks and more.
