Starting February 13th Philadelphia Museum of Art’s main building will be open until 8:45 p.m. every Wednesday. Pay-What-You-Wish Wednesday Nights are casual, exciting, and illuminating. Come on your own or with family or friends! Explore the Museum and its remarkable collections in inventive, interactive, and dynamic new ways. Gallery conversations take unexpected forms such as “triple play,” when we invite visitors to talk about three works united by a common theme.

Mini-film festivals will be screened showcasing international independent films and artist’s films as well as old favorites. Regional artists will offer in-gallery experiences or performance pieces. Once a month, visitors can play games inspired by the collection. ”Pop-up” programs will include sketching in the galleries and story-telling. Every week, music will bring evocative aural sensations to the Great Stair Hall, and once a month, musicians will perform live in the galleries.

This isn’t just for adults, Do you love their Early Bird program? Then join the Night Owl Read and Look on Wednesday evenings, when the Museum stays open late! Enjoy a pre-bedtime story and an art project in the galleries. Pajamas welcome!
