Date Night at the Royal BC Museum
Feb 14, 2012
Royal BC Museum, Victoria
On Feb. 14, the best place to say “I love you” to your valentine is a candle-lit gallery at the Royal BC Museum. At this unique after-dark event, couples can cuddle close to the Woolly Mammoth, or enjoy the work of the world’s best wildlife photographers, while sipping from champagne flutes and nibbling hors d’oeuvres.
The evening begins at 7 p.m. on the second floor with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine and light snacks throughout the Natural History and Wildlife Photographer of the Year galleries. Guests are invited to explore the exhibitions and find their own “best place to hold hands.”
At 8:30 p.m., the third floor opens with its view of the city, romantic music, conversation tables and Valentine sweets, along with a cash bar. Couples can stroll through the First Peoples and Modern History galleries – by candlelight.
Admission is $20 per person. Must be 19 or over. Early registration and 10 per cent discount for members. Register by Friday, Feb. 10, online or at the box office.
