Mar 13 Friday
On Friday the 13th, step into the shadows and experience the dramatic world of Caravaggio. This adults-only evening brings together art, music, fashion, flavor, and flair, immersing guests in the spectacle of the Baroque.
Dress to impress and explore the museum after hours—sip lavish cocktails, create your own Baroque-inspired art moments, and move through a soundscape that fuses classical grandeur with modern beats from In Between Days Vinyl DJ and in-house musical Curator DJ Sein, all while striking your own dramatic pose… or two.
Heighten the experience with an exclusive sommelier-led wine tasting from Book + Bottle, hosted in the MFA’s Membership Garden, featuring a curated selection of bold, expressive wines worthy of the Baroque.
The night comes alive with dynamic visuals from oil painter Whitney Paige, whose live painting is sure to stop guests in their tracks, and a one-night-only floral installation by Nancy Steinbuechler of the Garden Club of St. Petersburg. With inventive experiences and unforgettable energy, this is a night you won’t want to miss.
