At the Museum

In collaboration with artist Julie Mehretu, the Whitney celebrates Pride with a free after-hours event featuring an evening of music by DJ REBORN and refreshments on the Museum’s fifth floor terrace. Mehretu’s mid-career survey will be open for viewing in the Museum’s fifth floor Neil Bluhm Family Galleries during the event.

The health and safety of our guests and staff is our top priority and the Museum is following State and local COVID-19 guidelines. Accordingly, prior to entry, the Museum will require that guests provide evidence of a recent negative COVID test (within 72 hours) or completion of a COVID-19 vaccination series (at least 14 days prior to the event). In addition, face coverings and social distancing are required throughout the evening, and guests may not congregate except when seated.
