Art Hop

​On Sunday, October 25th, After Hours is heading to Jersey City for Mana Contemporary's Fall Open Studios!

​THE DAY
We're spending the day inside Mana Contemporary, a former 1920s tobacco warehouse turned arts center, where more than 100 artists open their studio doors to the public. We'll explore together, meeting artists, taking in special exhibitions and enjoying live music and performances. Then we'll head to a local speakeasy to close out the afternoon with a social mixer.

​DRESS CODE
Style is a form of self-expression. At After Hours, our motto is "come dressed to express." For Open Studios, our inspiration is Color Theory, a nod to Warhol's bold pop art and Flavin's glowing light installations. Choose one bold color and build your look around it, or add a single vibrant piece to a neutral outfit. Go all out or come as you are. There's no wrong way to show up. Have fun with it!

​ABOUT AFTER HOURS
