Movement at the Museum
Get moving in new and interesting ways within the walls of the museum.
On the final Friday of each month, get moving with fun, fresh, and healthy social activities the whole community can enjoy. Discover new interests, learn different skills, and connect with others all under our roof. Whether an up-tempo night of salsa dancing, a centering evening of tai chi, or all the aerobics involved with swing dance, you’re sure to leave inspired (and possibly perspired).
No prior experience needed.
5pm to 6pm on the final Friday of each month.
