Friday Nights at Italian Masterpieces
Class up your Friday nights with some late-night art, killer music, and the classiest venue of them all: the National Gallery of Victoria.
Overview
Are you sick of Friday nights spent in dingy bars with sleazy businessmen and girls in microscopic dresses? Does the thought of catching one more seedy cab from outside the Carlton Club make your skin crawl? Maybe it's time to class up your weekends. And there's no better way to do that than with late-night art, killer music, and the classiest venue of them all: the National Gallery of Victoria.
From now until the end of August, the NGV are opening up their winter blockbuster series to the night-time crowd. It's been around for a few years now, so you probably know the drill. Each Friday night, you'll be able to cruise around Italian Masterpieces while listening to some sweet Aussie musicians and sipping on some wine. With talks, DJs, and a suitably Italian bar menu, the NGV has officially been transformed into an all-in-one oasis.
This year's series will be kicked off by Kirin J Callinan on Friday, June 27 and followed up with the likes of Owl Eyes, Teeth & Tongue, Dan Kelly, and The Audreys. Head over to the NGV website to see the full line-up.
