No talking. No food and drinks. No dancing

Come break the rules and say “yes!” to new art experiences at the Carter’s Second Thursdays! Each month you’ll find something different than the last—mingle with fellow art lovers, make art, and meet visiting artists, sometimes with live music and always with themed cocktails inspired by the Carter’s collection.

This month, enjoy an evening enhanced with art making and themed cocktails while listening to local musicians perform on our Porch.

Schedule
