Attire-Mid-Century Chic

This year at the museum is inspired by the mid-century, with two themed exhibits focusing on the time period. We’d love to see your interpretation of mid-century chic at Nautical Night. For some extra fun, you can add a nautical twist! Blazers are not required. The most important thing is for you to feel good and be comfortable. Please check the weather ahead of time as the event is held outdoors. In case of rain, the event will be moved indoors.
