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.
Come early to enjoy the very popular annual artist lecture series in the Koret Auditorium at 6 pm, where you get a sneak preview of some of the many notable art projects in progress right now for Burning Man 2013.
You’ll hear from artists who are creating revolutionary works of art, often in radically collaborative ways. Learn how you can get involved and support these and other artists at the Burning Man event and year-round.
Also arrive early and enjoy Urbanauts, a wonderful artist collaboration between Sean Orlando and Rebar, hosted by the de Young and supported by the Black Rock Arts Foundation and the James Irvine Foundation.
