The timing couldn't be any better. Looking to meet someone new in your life and show off your Star Wars movie knowledge at the same time? This is the place to make a hook-up that's out of this world. 

 

The Adler Planetarium in Chicago hosts a monthly 21 years of age or older night time event where adults can explore the Museum Campus attraction while enjoying drinks and entertainment. "Adler After Dark" takes place every Thursday night through February 18, 2016.

In December, the timely event also happens to be Chicago's official release party for Star WarsThe Force Awakens and runs until midnight. The extra hours are packed with events like a light saber combat workshop, a Star Wars cosplay contest, trivia and a screening of the series' best spoof, Space Balls.

You may just find that special person from a galaxy far far away right down I-90 if you're lucky.

This idea of finding romance in local museums and educational areas may be the next big thing for Rockford. Imagine 'Discovery Center After Dark', or 'A Midway Village Mixer' in the near future. It boosts attendance, promotes education, and gives everyone looking for love another chance at meeting that special someone in a cool, professional, and classy setting.
