Gather friends, plan a date, or spend a solo evening with art and music. From 5:00–7:30, we’ll keep the Member Bar open late and invite everyone to come hang out and experience what makes this space so special.
Enjoy mingling, live music by the Anthony Bruno trio, and skyline views in the Member Bar at Terzo Piano, with delicious sips and snacks available for purchase. Whether you’re a regular or visiting for the first time, it’s an easy, relaxed way to see the museum in a different light.
Throughout the evening, inspiration awaits across the building. Explore current exhibitions such as Matisse’s Jazz: Rhythms in Color and Korean National Treasures, revisit favorite artworks in the collection galleries, attend Thursday evening talks in our auditoriums, or browse for unique objects from the Museum Shop.
