Third Thursdays

From 2016 through 2019, Third Thursdays brought together the hottest local talent to create surprising, one-of-a-kind experiences at the museum. Visitors were invited to turn up the volume with a cash bar, live music, and performances along with late-night access to the museum galleries.
