MYSTERY Musical Adventure

MYSTERY Musical Adventure is a musically themed treasure hunt + album signing at The Pop-Hop Book & Print Shop in Highland Park.

Part treasure hunt, part puzzle, part guided audio tour of your inner life.

Inspired by MYSTERY -- a collection of 12 songs dealing with with the big stories of life -- this immersive concert guides you through clues to collect as you make your way through the shop (and a few nearby landmarks outside) to find items, clues, and works of art.

Participate on your own or with friends and kids. Or your kids' friends. Or your friend's kids! Basically, this is fun for all ages with the potential of being a little bit exciting, mysterious and even beautiful.

Tickets are $10 per person, or $20 for a group. Remote options are also available.

You will need: 
- headphones to listen through your phone
- data service to stream audio from the internet (a very small amount)
- a notebook for capturing your insights!
- something you want to have signed by the artist

The experience takes 1-2 hours to complete (depending on your unique aptitudes and interests).

Participants who complete the adventure will earn Bragging Rights™ and be entered to win the Grand Prize...

Complete all challenges by 5pm to receive your special surprise and get your notebook signed!

Take yourself on a musical mystery adventure. You never know what you will find!
