Grab some friends and co-workers and visit the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum on the third thursday of each month for an evening of music, wine and culture!

From 5:30-9:00 pm gather in the evening at the Gardner, soak up the atmosphere of the historic courtyard garden, and explore the light-filled spaces of the new wing. Free music and a cash wine bar each night, plus artist and spotlight talks in the galleries. Join in clever gallery games, sketching, and a chance to get a little messy in our new art studio too. Each night is a bit different from the next and sure to spark conversation and delight.

This month the beautiful hanging Nasturtiams (pictured) are on view. Cascades of blossoming nasturtium vines make their brief but dramatic appearance above the Courtyard, celebrating the arrival of spring at the Gardner Museum. (Nasturtium blooms last about three weeks.) The annual Hanging Nasturtiums display continues an annual tradition started by Isabella Stewart Gardner during the week before Easter, marking the valiant return of color to The Fenway.
