Harvard Art Museums at Night

Join Harvard Art Museums 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, such as Small Change Brewing and Pagu. Visit our summer exhibition, "The Solomon Collection: Dürer to Degas and Beyond," and of course, wander the galleries to take in our world-class art collections—over 50 galleries to explore! Stop by the Materials Lab for a pop-up exhibit from our Harvard Art Museums Archives team, featuring behind-the-scenes stories from our collections. Archival photos, documents, and ephemera reveal how objects came to the museums—and how they’ve been perceived, taught with, and displayed over time.

Harvard Art Museums at Night takes place the last Thursday of every month, from 5 to 9 PM. 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.
