Secret Supper Society: An Evening of Fine Dining &amp; Impossible Magic
Step into a hidden world where elegance meets the unexplainable.
The Secret Supper Society is not just a dinner—it’s an experience.
Guests will enjoy a refined, multi-course dining experience in an intimate setting, paired with astonishing, up-close magic and mentalism performed just inches away. This is not stage magic. This is interactive, impossible, and deeply personal.
Throughout the evening, you won’t just watch the magic… you’ll feel it.
Expect moments that spark laughter, disbelief, and genuine connection as reality bends right in front of you.
This is an experience designed for those who appreciate the finer things—exceptional food, great company, and unforgettable moments.
Seating is extremely limited to preserve the intimacy of the evening.
If you’re looking for something different… something elevated… something you’ll be talking about long after it ends—
This is your invitation.UPDATE: These shows have been sold out. We'll keep everyone posted on further dates. We look forward to seeing everyone on Thursday night.

S.P.A.R.K.&nbsp;stands for&nbsp;Science. Play. Action. Research. Knowledge,&nbsp;and that’s exactly what the morning is all about. Students will dive into interactive labs, ask big questions, and explore how science connects to the world around them.

Snack Science: Cracking the Code of Carbs, Fats &amp; Proteins
Students will test everyday foods to uncover the building blocks of life - carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.

Using red cabbage as a natural indicator, students will experiment with acids and bases and watch chemistry come alive in vibrant color.
Air Apparent: The Invisible Force All Around Us
Through hands-on experiments, students will explore the properties of air—and discover just how powerful something invisible can be.
