One of my favorite dates with my husband is when we go to the Grand Rapids Art Museum on Friday nights. This is a great night to check it out because it costs $5 to get in but you get not only the art but some great jazz or modern music. Here's how they put it in the magazine, On the Town - "Every Friday night, enjoy a casual evening of art, music, food, and drinks. Enjoy a relaxing immersion in the arts with galleries open all night, promotions in the museum store, gourmet buffet dinner in the cafe ($10), a cash bar, and jazz and modern music playing from the balcony. Also, the Art Forum features a rotation of guest speakers, gallery talks, demonstrations, and more with a solo piano winding down the evening. Jazz and Modern music, 5-7pm; Art Forum, 7-7:45pm. "
So if you need something cheaper than the movies on a Friday night date or would just like a little sophistication in your life check out the upcoming schedule - March 21st: Bill Sears Trio, with architect Yo Hakomori speaking. March 28: Fred Knapp Trio, with artist and professor Sharon Sandberg speaking.
And if you'd like to find a way to see the museum for free, check out my earliest blogs to see a write up on how to make it happen. Have a great weekend!
