In lieu of the Free First Thursdays program (which offers free admission to the museum from 5 to 8 p.m. on the first Thursday of every month), which will be going on hiatus until October 7, EMP|SFM will be hosting a new program called Late Nights, where guests are invited to enjoy live music and drinks in the Sky Church, and explore EMP|SFM exhibitions during extended visiting hours, beginning tonight, Thursday, June 3.
Late Nights will be held every month on the first Thursday evening during the museum’s summer hours schedule (June 3, July 1, August 5 and September 2). However, unlike the First Free Thursdays program, admission to the Sky Church during Late Nights will be free, but admission to the galleries will cost–the same price as daily tickets (free for EMP|SFM members and children under 5 years old; $15 for adults; $12 for children ages 5-17, students, military and seniors).
Tonight the band We Wrote the Book on Connectors will be performing. On July 1 No-Fi Soul Rebellion and Boy Eats Drum Machine will perform. The Rat City Brass will be performing Thursday, August 5. All shows are all ages and open to the public at no cost.
