Gallery Night is a long-time Madison arts tradition that showcases the city’s vibrant arts community. Organized each May and October by MMoCA, Gallery Night offers art lovers and art novices alike an opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of exhibitions, opening receptions, special events, and demonstrations at venues throughout the city. During Gallery Night, dozens of venues open their doors to invite the public in to see and shop for original artwork.

Gallery Night takes place from 5-9 pm on the first Fridays of May and October, though some participating venues set their own hours. All venues participating in Gallery Night are open free of charge, unless otherwise noted.
