Asian Art Museum’s $10 Thursday Nights (SF)
Looking for a great date night on the cheap? The Asian Art Museum is open until 8 pm on Thursdays and general admission is just $10 (that’s half-off). Plus Special exhibitions are now included with general admission tickets!
You can spend an evening in their beautiful building enjoying the galleries, fun talks, lively gatherings and intimate hangs with artists.
Except for certain special events, general admission tickets are $10 for adults, $8.50 for seniors, $7 for students and youths (age 13-17).
Artist Chris Fraser searches out spaces of overlay and gaps, drawing attention to the ways the Asian Art Museum exists in a state between: between cultures, architectures, histories, and times. Using the camera obscura as a point of departure in his work, Chris Fraser pursues an experience of light that engages the unseen in everyday phenomena.
His work has been exhibited at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the Vitra Design Museum, Disjecta, Highlight Gallery, and Palazzo Bembo as part of the 55th Venice Biennale. Chris is a recipient of the Jay DeFeo MFA Prize at Mills College and was recently awarded a Eureka Fellowship by the Fleishhacker Foundation. He has been artist-in-residence at Kala Art Institute and the Djerassi Resident Artists Program.
About the Artists Drawing Club
The Artists Drawing Club is an interdisciplinary public program series that invites local contemporary artists to use the museum as a platform, drawing inspiration from the permanent collection, rotating special exhibitions, the building, and the neighborhood, and leveraging their artistic practices to realize a new artist-driven project in which exchange, experience, and interaction are paramount. The Artists Drawing Club is not about the act of drawing, but drawing connections between ideas, times, cultures, and the broader world we occupy.
