MFA Late Nites

Join us at our March 3 MFA Late Nites, the next event in our series connecting visitors to art, culture, and community. The MFA is open to the public for ticketed entry to the party from 8 pm to 2 am. The diverse event lineup features programming created in partnership with local organizations, artists, and more—making the Museum buzz with activity:

• Exhibitions on view include "Takashi Murakami: Lineage of Eccentrics," "M. C. Escher: Infinite Dimensions" and "(un)expected families."

• Music by DJ Earthaclit, Lunamariposa, DJ Dayglow featuring Coleslaw, Severity Stone, and Violencia, MSHR and DJ Drasher in the Shapiro Family Courtyard—curated by Kara Stokowski (DJ Dayglow)

• In true HipStory style, the Linde Family Wing for Contemporary Art comes to life with a lineup of live music and dope DJs

• Performances by Urbanity Dance and Lilit Hartunian

• A VR experience by MSHR (art collective duo Birch Cooper and Brenna Murphy), meshing digital sculpture, analog circuitry and ceremonial performance
