Art by Twilight 2019

Overview

Make the most of the summery Melbourne weather with a twilight visit to the Heide Museum of Modern Art. Giving you an after-hours to explore Mirka Mora's Pas de Deux — Drawings and Dolls and Danica Chappell's Thickness of Time exhibitions, the gallery is extending its opening hours until 8pm and hosting a couple of laidback shindigs as the sun goes down.

From 5pm — on Friday, January 25 and Saturday, February 16 — visitors will be able to scope out the exhibitions, wander through Heide's beloved sculpture park, and enjoy music from percussionist Vanessa Tomlinson and experimental music producer Martin Ng. There'll also be food and wine available to purchase, because no jaunt through a gallery is truly complete with a glass of bubbly in hand. That's just a straight-up fact — and, if you're organised, you can also bring your own picnic.

Entry in Art by Twilight starts at $10 for Heide members, $15 for concession holders and $20 for adults.
