Harvard Art Museums at Night

Join us for an evening of art, fun, food, and more! This event is free and open to everyone.

Gather with friends and mingle inside our Italian-inspired courtyard while taking in the smooth sounds from DJ C-Zone. Browse the museum shop and chat over a snack or drink for purchase from local vendors. Tonight, the featured local vendors are Lamplighter Brewing Co. and LuLu Green. In the Materials Lab, don’t miss the chance to check out woodblock printing by BIG INK using their giant mobile press (a.k.a. the Big Tuna). BIG INK collaborated with LaToya Hobbs in the printing of the monumental works that are on view in LaToya M. Hobbs: It’s Time (closing soon!) There are also museum scavenger hunts and chances to win prizes. And of course, wander the galleries to take in our world-class art collections—over 50 galleries to explore! Don’t forget to check out the current exhibitions.

After you’ve explored the galleries, circle back to see what’s happening in the courtyard.

Harvard Art Museums at Night takes place the last Thursday of every month (holidays permitting), from 5 to 9pm. Each night features a new mix of local talent and community partners to make this a festive occasion for all.

When arriving, enter via Quincy Street. In inclement weather, please use the Prescott entrance as it provides extra shelter. Advance registration is encouraged, but walk-in visitors are always welcome. Please note that space may be limited due to capacity. Registration opens two weeks before the event.
