Once a month, when the sun goes down, the dogs come out to play!

Bark After Dark is our new after-hours series where art, dogs, and community come together for a lively, themed evening. Enjoy music, special activities, and playful surprises designed for both people and pups—all set against the backdrop of the Museum’s one-of-a-kind collection. Each month brings a fresh twist, so no two nights are the same. It’s where culture and canine companionship collide—for the coolest night in town.

Free for Members at the Individual level and above; Non-Members $20 Humans, $5 Dogs. But, get your tickets early! These events typically sell out and we cannot guarantee there will be space the day of the event.

All attendees will be required to sign a waiver before entry.

Special for October 24: Howl-o-ween!

We are serving up tricks and treats for our annual Halloween celebration! Wear your costumes and explore all we have to offer. Magician Emma Olson will be on hand to dazzle you with tricks and we will have spooky fun crafts you can do with your dog. And our favorite “pupkin” carver, Brett Heuser, returns again this year to carve dog portraits into pumpkins. If you’re registered for our 6-8pm session, arrive by 6:15pm to be entered into a drawing to have your pup’s portrait put on a pumpkin!

This event is FREE for Members at the Individual level and above.
