Free Gallery Talks

Free Gallery Talks take place at 2:00pm, Wednesday through Sunday, and are open to all individual visitors. In keeping with Noguchi's interest in the visitor's personal experience of the Museum, participants will be encouraged to share their observations and interpretations throughout the course of the tour. Reservations are not required. On the first Fridays and second Sundays of the month gallery talks are also available in Japanese.

First Fridays

During the summer months and other times throughout the year the Museum is open late on the first Friday of the month. With pay-what-you-wish admission and a cash bar with wine and beer beginning at 5:30pm, the Museum will remain open until 8:00pm.

Second Sundays

Every second Sunday of the month, the Noguchi Museum assembles renowned experts in various fields of the arts, architecture and design to engage in dialogues that complement the Museum's mission and exhibitions.  Events, varying from panel discussions to musical performances and poetry readings, take place at 3pm on the second Sunday of each month, unless otherwise noted. View our Second Sundays Archive.

All programs are free with Museum admission. For more information, please email programs@noguchi.org. Programs are subject to change; please check back for updated information.
