Looking for somewhere to wear your fancy macabre wardrobe?  If you’re in the Philadelphia area, the Mütter Museum is having its 150th Anniversary Party this Friday night, January 9th.  

From Morbid Anatomy:

The Mütter Museum’s 150th Anniversary Party will take place this Friday, January 9th at the museum, located in Philadelphia, Pennslvania. Tickets start at a whopping $85, but it looks to be an pretty great event, and includes after-hours museum admission, open bar and tickets to the Mütter Museum dance party. That’s right. Dance party.

If you opt for one of the higher-priced options (Patron or Supporter tickets), you’ll also get a behind-the-scenes tour, a “whimsical Victorian dinner,” and the opportunity to bear witness to the unveiling of a new portrait of the visionary and beloved (and, sadly, now deceased) former Mütter Museum director Gretchen Worden. 

Hope to see you there!

Sadly, I am on the other side of the country, so I think I’ll be spending Friday night re-reading my souvenir book (I still need to order my ’09 calendar).
