On Thursday, March 31, Philly's restaurant scene is gathering together for a night of food and drink at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University.

Attendees will have three-plus hours to dine on fare from more than 25 local restaurants and indulge in cocktails, wine or craft beer.

Choose a dish and wander through the historic museum's Dinosaur Hall, butterfly exhibit and themed galleries. Live entertainment will entertain guests in multiple rooms.

General-admission tickets are $45 per person, but there is a group discount for buying in bulk.

A portion of proceeds from the event will go toward seven charities: The Food Trust, Philabundance, St. Christopher's Foundation for Children, Farm to City, The Greater Philadelphia Coalition Against Hunger, The SHARE Food Program and Fair Food Philly.
