October 9 & 10, 6-9 PM
Team up with friends to crack clues, solve ciphers, and hack history as you race against foes to find the missing piece in a nearly 20-year-old treasure hunt! At National Treasure Hunt’s HEIST NIGHT, presented by President Lincoln’s Cottage, you’ll test your skills in history, science, logic, trivia, and more as you work together to solve escape room-style puzzles in a character-driven quest. Learn surprising new skills in an exciting night out with your Heist Masters, Aubrey Paris and Emily Black, creators of the National Treasure Hunt podcast, book, and tour. Secrets will be revealed during this one-of-a-kind adventure. Will you join the hunt?
*The same program will run both nights!
**National Treasure fans might have a slight “edge” when completing some HEIST NIGHT challenges, so if you’ve been looking for an excuse to watch (or rewatch) these popular films, now is the perfect time!
***Recommended for ages 18+, but younger participants (especially the history-savvy) are also welcome!
