Join CMOA for our final Third Thursday of the year as we celebrate the launch of another entry into the Star Wars universe with a spaced-out art and dance party. Choose the light or dark side of the force, dress up in your intergalactic gear, and enjoy:
- special Star Wars-themed gallery tours
- Jedi (or Sith) training academy with stage fight choreographer Tonya Lynn
- special appearances by some of your favorite costumed characters
- REkOGNIZE, a three-channel video installation by Han Solo standalone film cinematographer Bradford Young
- dance beats from a galaxy far, far away with Keith DeVries (aka KMFD)
- in-gallery discussions of Ian Cheng’s artificially-intelligent artwork Emissary Sunsets The Self
- galactic drawing in Carnegie Science Center's mobile planetarium
- a Star Wars costume contest, featuring great museum prizes
- space cocktails in our alien cantina (The Café Carnegie)
We’ll also be giving away tickets throughout the night to see Star Wars: The Last Jedi at Carnegie Science Center’s new Rangos Giant Cinema, the most technologically advanced movie theater in western Pennsylvania.
