SCIENCE COCKTAIL FAQs
Attire - Cocktail party but weather appropriate. That means, if you want to wear your cute party dress or cool new shirt - fantastic. But if it's cold and blizzard-y out and you can't imagine wearing anything but flannel-lined jeans and a big sweater, that's fine with us! You can ditch your boots at the door - the drinks and conversation will warm you right up. Just no pajamas please.
Bonus Parking - Special DISCOUNT ($4.00!!!) parking available at Mart Parc Self Park garage, 401 N. Wells at Kinzie St., one block north of DIRTT. We'll give you a voucher at the party to use when you leave.
Bonus treat - Make it a night out! Fulton's on the River (a fantastic restaurant) will offer bar and menu specials to anyone who mentions they're coming to the ISC event! It's a block away at 315 N. LaSalle Street, so you can treat yourself to a special dinner before our special event!
Public Transit - Easy! Event is right across the street from the southeast doors of Merchandise Mart. CTA brown stops on 2nd level of the Mart. Tip - there is no down escalator in the Mart; take the stairs on left outside CTA turnstiles. Or, LaSalle #156 bus stops one block east at 320 LaSalle. Follow the narrow sidewalk north of the building.
This is a 21+ event. Handicap accessible - Yes, DIRTT is accessible.
Printed tickets - Don't print out tickets; wastes paper. Provide your name, and guest name(s), with your ticket purchase and we'll have it on the list at the door.
Bonus Quote - "Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity." - Albert Einstein
Insider scoop - the signature cocktail will feature pop rocks and glow sticks. Seriously.
The Illinois Science Council ("ISC") is an independent, volunteer-driven nonprofit organization that engages, educates, and entertains the adult public about science and technology in our everyday lives. We like to showcase the scientists and research of the Chicago-area institutions and companies that make Chicago the nation's true "City of Science."
We are inspired and motivated by this quote by Carl Sagan: “We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.” It's true, but it's also extremely serious. ISC explores all areas of science and technology but we do it with a fun, non-stuffy approach. We don't care about what's been forgotten since we were in school (or never learned in the first place). We keep our "mascots" - Muppets Dr. Bunson Honeydew and Beaker - close by because they remind us that science and technology are not only important, but interesting and fun too! It's all about simply continuing to exercise our sense of curiosity.
