Come out for PAFA After Dark on Thursday evenings for a night of fun, flavor and friendship. You can experience the magic of PAFA’s art and atmosphere under the provocative blanket of night. Drink a cocktail, revel in live music, explore new exhibitions and make new art and new friends – all with a different theme each month.

This first event will showcase all of PAFA’s “choicest bits” during its program premier, proving the naked awesomeness of what a museum can be when it reveals itself fully to visitors. Taking place within the galleries of the museum’s recently-opened exhibition Narcissus in the Studio, composed entirely of artist’s self-portraits and portraits of each other, the evening will feature a Naked at Night Scavenger Hunt, signature cocktails sponsored by Capital Wine and Spirits, a Full Frontal Nerdity Gallery Talk, and a one night only art project organized by the artist collective Space 1026. A musical performance by the West Philly Orchestra will strip audiences of their perceptions of what an “orchestra” really is, with a bold, unflinching sound rooted in Eastern European folk music traditions, but dressed in the sounds of twenty-first century Philadelphia, voices nourished by our jazz heritage, tinged with punk rock, soul, and cheesesteaks.
