Museum of Life and Science offers 'Fridays Made Easy'

The Museum of Life and Science in Durham is bringing back its Fridays Made Easy deal.

Every fourth Friday of the month from June to September, the museum is open from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. and admission is just $5 (after 5 p.m.). Admission is usually $14 for adults; $11 for seniors and active military; and $10 for kids ages 3 to 12.

It's a great opportunity to save some money and enjoy the museum and its outdoor exhibits in (hopefully) cooler temperatures.

The museum's Ellerbe Creek Railway will be open during the evening hours. And so will the new Sprout Cafe for dinner or a snack.

The dates are this Friday, June 22; July 27; Aug. 24; and Sept. 28.
