Enjoy a free evening of art, music and entertainment as Pasadena’s most prominent arts and cultural institutions swing open their doors.

ArtNight Spring 2016 highlights
- A special one-night only entrance to USC Pacific Asia Museum’s “Royal Taste” exhibit (the art of princely courts in 15th Century China).
- A Norton Simon Museum exhibit entitled “Marcel Duchamp to Pop Art” examines Duchamp’s potent influence on pop culture artists such as Andy Warhol and Ed Ruscha.
- Light Bringer Project at Day One, “3D Masterpiece Menagerie,” bringing artwork to life!
- ArtCenter College of Design exploration of the rich beauty and history of letterpress typography.
- A night of weird and wacky art at Kidspace Museum that you have to see to believe—and enjoy.
- The beauty of textiles at the quilt exhibit sponsored by the Pasadena Museum of History.
- The Lineage Performing Arts Center presents contemporary dance while MUSE/IQUE brings salsa to the Paseo Colorado.
– Tips
- If you’re planning on starting at Pasadena City Hall location, make sure you show up a bit earlier than 6pm, as shuttles may tend to fill up fast. It’s also a good idea to show up early as the start time may be fluid (one year they showed up late and another year they left early).
- Make sure you plan to be back to your start destination by 9:45 pm, as shuttle drivers can be temperamental (it’s a problem that’s been plaguing the shuttle experience at ArtNight for years and the organizers don’t seem to have a solution for it).
- There will be plenty of food trucks to chose from. (As part of the GiveBack Program, these food trucks will donate 10% of their ArtNight proceeds to help support future ArtNights).
Free shuttles run all evening with stops at each venue. Park at any one venue and ride to the others.
