Held on the third Thursdays in July and August, Summer Nights at The Carle provides evening access to the entire museum – from the galleries and art studio to the bookshop and Bobbie’s Meadow.

Join us on July 18th and ​August 15th for enchanting evenings of events where you can explore the Museum after hours. Enjoy live music, special exhibitions, and refreshments in a vibrant and relaxed atmosphere. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to experience the Museum in a whole new light.

Inspired by the special exhibition Fuzuê! Invention & Imagination in the Art of Roger Mello, guests will experience cultural highlights from around the globe. Listen to the diverse repertoire of music from Quarteto de Samba that includes Samba, Forró, Brazilian funk, Choro, and Bossa Nova. Try some new dance moves with performer Luana Dias David!

Guests are welcome to enjoy a picnic in Bobbie’s Meadow or The Carle Café, or purchase food from a local food truck. Popsicles from Crooked Stick Pops are also available for purchase.

Fuzuê! Invention & Imagination in the Art of Roger Mello is made possible through the generous support of the Garcia Family Foundation.
