UMMA will once again illuminate its facade with eight days of artwork, performances, and video during Nights At the Museum this September.

UMMA’s exterior media art initiative is free and open to the public, and will run September 15-22 from early evening to dawn along its South State Street-side facade, on the west side of the Maxine and Stuart Frankel and the Frankel Family Wing.

A trumpet call heralds a new season of the New York Philharmonic at David Geffen Hall, and you’re invited to experience it here in Ann Arbor as it’s streamed live at UMMA Nights at the Museum. Feel the sheer virtuosity and passion of the orchestra as it performs Mahler’s emotionally powerful Fifth Symphony — a work full of yearning, tenderness, and joy, which includes the beloved Adagietto. Conducted by the New York Philharmonic’s new Music Director Jaap van Zweden, this performance screening will preview the New York Philharmonic’s five-day UMS residency November 15-19, 2017 in Ann Arbor.

Nights at the Museum is presented in partnership with the University Musical Society, the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office, School of Music, Theatre & Dance and Department of Screen Arts & Cultures, the Ann Arbor District Library, and the Neutral Zone.
