Friday Nights at the de Young | Fall 2018
One of San Francisco’s most celebrated after-hours museum events returns for a fall season of 2018.
These nine Friday Nights feature free admission to the main-level galleries highlighted by a reinterpretation of contemporary art in their permanent collection and new acquisitions called Specters of Disruption. In addition, Friday Nights will offer reduced-price tickets of $14 to the exhibition Contemporary Muslim Fashions from 6–8:30 pm.
Through social-media moments and in-person dialogue, visitors can engage and commune with the art and with one another in a warm and welcoming setting. Enjoy specialty drinks and mocktails, coffees, teas, and snacks. Bring your friends. Strike a pose at the selfie wall. Listen to music. Make art. Activities take place from 6–8:30 pm.
This series brings in multi-generational and culturally diverse voices to share San Francisco’s cultural history and heritage, storytelling, and present-day perspective about San Francisco’s rapidly changing demographics and culture.
Live music, lively discussions, games, street art, poetry, and dance will be presented in spaces throughout the museum including Wilsey Court, Koret Auditorium, Hammond Tower, and other locations. Programs are organized with museum staff, Janet Delaney, and UC Berkeley’s Research Center for the Arts.
