MAM After Dark: The Blue Room
Inspired by Gertrude Abercrombie: The Whole World Is a Mystery, the night leans into moody surrealism, intimate performances, and a sense of intrigue that lingers in every gallery. Let live jazz set the tone as you move through shadowy spaces filled with creative encounters—sketch a portrait, uncover hidden details in a gallery scavenger hunt, or create your own work alongside local artists. As the evening deepens, the vibe shifts from smoky lounge to late-night pulse, closing out with a DJ set that keeps the energy alive. Mysterious, immersive, and effortlessly cool—this is After Dark at its most atmospheric.
Dress the part for a night of moody elegance and late-night allure. Think classic jazz lounge meets surrealist edge—sleek silhouettes, dark tones, vintage glamour, and a touch of the unexpected. If it feels a little mysterious, a little bold, and effortlessly cool, you’re right on note.
