NUPA Outing to Field Museum

Join your fellow postdocs for natural wonders, cultural heritage and socializing at Chicago's Field Museum.

NUPA will be purchasing tickets for all Northwestern postdocs who attend (Wildcard required). Please feel free to bring partners, children, friends etc. NUPA will not cover costs of tickets for anyone who is not a Northwestern Postdoc. All tickets are discounted for Chicago residents so bring your ID.

We will meet inside the main hall near the museum store at 12 noon. You'll recognize us by our NUPA t-shirts. We will buy the tickets in one transaction so please ensure you are on time if you want your ticket to be paid for by NUPA. Feel free to leave when you are ready. The museum closes at 5pm.

Northwestern runs a free shuttle bus from the Northwestern Evanston campus to the museum campus via the Chciaho campus on Saturday April 5th. All riders must present a Wildcard to ride the shuttle.
