What is Adult Swim?

Adult Swim at Madison Children’s Museum borrows the public pool tradition of kicking out the kids so adults can have the place to themselves (just without the water, swimsuits, or axe murderer standing right behind you!) This 21+ event series gives adults the space to play like a grown-up—crawling, slithering, crafting, drinking, and Thriller-dancing your way through the museum. Please note, this event is not affiliated with ADULT SWIM, the television and entertainment network—they were actually very chill about it. Also, we don’t have a swimming pool.

Ticket cancellation/exchange policy.
