Nite Art 2014

Overview

Nite Art is a contemporary art event for budding artists, enthusiasts and those searching for something to do on a Wednesday night that isn't watching cats waking up their owners on YouTube. Galleries and art institutions swing open their doors at once and keep them open until late into the night (not White Night late, but late).

This year eight precincts, 28 art sites, 35 exhibitions and upwards of 80 artists are involved, so it's by no means a small 'artsy' evening. There will be art walks, talks, exhibition openings, artist-run spaces as well as access to notable art institutions, galleries and museums. Partnering up with Open House Melbourne, The Ian Potter Museum, ACMI and the University of Melbourne, Nite Art has all the right foundations for an engaging and inspiring night out.

If looking at work isn't your thing, then listening to interesting people might be. With talks from artists and curators at numerous venues across the city as well as readings, there really is something for everyone. Nite Art will be running from 6pm to late, so you've got enough time to run home, change, download your site map and get out there.
