About this event
Brooklyn's biggest free night of the month: six hours of open galleries with live sets by Brooklyn musicians, curator-led tours, film screenings, drop-in art-making and a market of local makers threaded through the building. It draws thousands and feels closer to a party than a museum visit. Register in advance and arrive early for the headline performance.
Why we picked it
The definitive free museum night in New York - real scale, real music and a genuine local crowd rather than a tourist queue.
Free entry
Free admission for all during First Saturday hours, 5-11 pm. Advance registration required; the September link is published in the weeks beforehand.
