Join us as we once again welcome New Ballet, San José’s leading professional ballet company, to a night at the museum. As part of this annual tradition, dancers will be onsite for the evening, with a formal preview of the 2023/2024 season, introduced by Director Dalia Rawson, at 7:15pm in the Charlotte Wendel Education Center. Dancers will present excerpts from traditional works as well as new works-in-progress. Included in the preview will be an introduction to a work danced to big band music from the videogame Cuphead, selections from The San José Nutcracker, and favorite passages from Cinderella.
Art lovers can also enjoy an evening of open galleries. See Sadie Barnette: Family Business and Yolanda López: Portrait of the Artist before the exhibitions closes! The Museum Store is also open late, and stop by El Cafecito by Mezcal Restaurant for light bites and refreshments.
