All three floors of Planet Word will stay open late, including the interactive Unlock the Music karaoke gallery and the laugh-out-loud Joking Around humor gallery. Enjoy word-based puzzles, games, drinks, and a little retail therapy at the Present Perfect gift shop.

Guests can also indulge in complimentary sweet treats from Spilled Milk and enjoy beer, wine, and soda from a pop-up bar by Immigrant Food. Pay what you can: $5 – $25. Your ticket allows us to continue offering more great programs like Wordplay Wednesday to a wider audience.
