ArtNight - Spring 2020
March 13, 2020 ArtNight Pasadena CANCELED!
ArtNight is a unique Pasadena event that relies on a number of independent art venues coming together to jointly produce a city wide effort. While the City Health Officer has not directed us to cancel this event, the City is concerned that ongoing community perception of current health issues will reduce attendance as well as limit the number of volunteers available to provide staffing. A number of participating venues have also expressed concerns over health issues as well as over reduced attendance.
Therefore, after due consideration and comprehensive discussions, the City of Pasadena regretfully will not hold the semi-annual ArtNight Pasadena scheduled for Friday, March 13th. We will work with our partners to coordinate the next ArtNight and keep you updated.
About ArtNight
ArtNight is an ongoing partnership among many cultural institutions and the Cultural Affairs Division of the City of Pasadena. The event is sponsored by the Pasadena Arts & Culture Commission with support from the following: Pasadena Department of Transportation Transit Division; Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority; and Pasadena Center Operating Company
Envision the Night
Enjoy a free evening of art, music and entertainment as Pasadena’s most prominent arts and cultural institutions swing open their doors. Last fall, more than 22,000 people experienced the excitement of ArtNight.
