Upcoming Event Circa Jazz: A Roaring 20s Dance Party at the Museum

Join us for a night of vintage vibes and modern moves at Circa Jazz, a dance party where Great Gatsby meets Great Energy. Dress to impress, sip a cocktail, and swing into the evening.

• 🎷Dance the night away to a live set by The Decos, performing traditional jazz tunes—including a chance to cut loose with The Charleston. The Decos feature Jen Maurer (vocals, piano, electric guitar), Kaiden Bos (saxophone), Lovest Watson (double bass), and Eriz Diaz (drums and vocals).
• 🕵️Get involved as you become the detective to solve a mystery. And enjoy passage to a secret speakeasy to claim a signature sip.
• 🖌️Try your creative eye with art-making activities including screen printing and decorating your own headdress or Boutonniere. Giggle Water will be available, along with non-alcoholic drinks.
• 🖼️And the cat’s meow? Enjoying the galleries after hours—your chance to see Alfred McMoore: All This Luck In My Head before it goes off view, plus new installations like Transfiguration: Rachel Libeskind and the Tiffany Window.
