Off the 'Cuff

Looking for something to do with your friends before the end of the summer? There’s no better place to cool down than in an old morgue. In just a last few weeks, the place has been burning up with a Yelp Party, a massive Groupon offer and busy programs for both kids and adults.

And it’s not over yet… we’ve got something happening almost every evening at the museum over the next month, including:

Sins of the City Walking Tours
Until the end of September

Spend some time on Vancouver’s shady side. Our always-popular “naughty little walking tour” sold more than 1200 spots last week thanks to a special promotion through Groupon.com; they always run every Wed, Fri and Sat at 4:00 PM, but we’re adding extra tours all the time because of this huge increase in demand.

When the tour ends, be sure to check out restaurant row in Gastown and grab dinner and/or drinks with your friends.

Get in touch for more info or to book a spot.

Forensics for Adults Workshops
Every Tuesday and Thursday through August at 6 and 9 PM

Nothing says “hot summer evening” quite like spilling a little blood or inspecting a firearm with your friends; these fun and interactive workshops are running one last time in 2010 so be sure to catch them while you can. Topics include:

• Aug 10 – Material Evidence
• Aug 12 – Ballistics
• Aug 17 - Fingerprints
• Aug 19 – To Be Announced (but it’ll be awesome!)
• Aug 24 – Blood Spatter
• Aug 26 – Forensic Pathology

Workshops run twice each evening, at 6:30PM and again at 8:00PM. Tickets are only available through our online store.

Vancouver International Fringe Festival
September 9 to 19, multiple times

Looking for a place to chill? We’re a venue for two different shows at this year’s Fringe including the cool “Unplugged Cop” and the chilling “After the End“, two very different shows that use our space in interesting and unexpected ways.

Get tickets to these shows directly from the Fringe Festival website.

It’s already been a busy summer, and with everything going on this month (and next) it’s not going to let up anytime soon. We can’t think of a cooler place to spend a warm summer evening, but we might be biased…
