What is Thursday Night Salon at the Carnegie Center?
Set in the main galleries amidst the art exhibitions, this interactive evening series is intended to foster a sense of community, with a rotating program of conversations, performances, and active art-making.
When do they occur?
Generally, once during each of our rotating art exhibitions. The Salon will occur on a first Thursday of the month.
