May the 4th Celebration at the Academy Museum

Plenty of spots may get in on the Star Wars-inspired fun for May the 4th, but how many can boast an appearance from R2-D2? Head to the Academy Museum and you can pose with the fan-favorite Droid in the lobby (10:30am–noon, 2–4pm; included in admission, $25), take a  space-themed museum tour, listen to scientist talks and even learn the ways of the force. There are also three (separately ticketed) Star Wars screenings throughout the day: The Phantom Menace at 11am, The Empire Strikes Back at 3pm and The Rise of Skywalker at 7:30pm.
