American Museum of Natural History (W 79th St @ Central Park West, 212.769.5100) 

Friday, February 29 - New York City

9:00 p.m.-1:00 a.m.

You must be 21 or older to attend this event, and present a valid I.D. 

In February, guests can dance to the sounds of DJ Jazzy Jeff. Since his infamous days with the Fresh Prince 20 years ago, DJ Jazzy Jeff has remained a hip-hop legend and purveyor of classic jams. And party-starter DJ Dirty Finger knows how to pack a dance floor, spinning a tight mix of ’80s Euro new wave, retro rock, and Latin soul.

***Whether you remember him for inventing the transformer scratch or from watching the Fresh Prince’s best friend get kicked out of the Banks mansion by Uncle Phil, you can’t protest DJ Jazzy Jeff’s stone-cold icon status. Fresh off releasing Return of the Magnificent (although let’s face it, he never left), the international music maven slings his litany of flawless beats in the Museum of Natural History. Before hip-hop had corporate appeal, Jeff had millions following his evolution, and today, mainstream and underground heads agree: this is how hip-hop is supposed to age. Rowdy Brooklyn vinyl-slinger DJ Dirty Finger brings a hyphy vibe to the museum, warming up the crowds with ADD dance tracks. 

Enjoy complimentary screenings of Cosmic Collisions—the breathtaking new Space Show that launches visitors on a thrilling trip through space and time to explore hypersonic impacts that drive the dynamic and continuing evolution of the universe. Narrated by award-winning actor, director, and producer Robert Redford, the Space Show runs every half hour beginning at 10:00 p.m., with the last showing at midnight.

Tickets are $20. Note: Admission price includes a free ticket for a future museum visit. To ease entrance traffic, we’ve set up our check-ins on Central Park West; you’ll now be guided through the dinosaur hall to the Rose Center.

Please use the Museum’s main entrance on Central Park West at 79th Street.
