gallery night

Museum evening event

Gallery night is an organized event, typically monthly, when multiple art galleries in a neighborhood or city stay open late and welcome visitors simultaneously.

The coordinated schedule lets people stroll from venue to venue, viewing new exhibitions and often enjoying refreshments: We hit six openings during gallery night.

Also called gallery walk or art walk.
