WHAT A NIGHT! Friday: Photography & Celebration

When everything at the Francisco Carolinum revolves around photography, the appropriate accompanying program is a must: WHAT A NIGHT! invites you to combine exhibition, exchange and atmosphere on selected Fridays.

As part of WHAT A VIEW!, the House of Photography and Media Art is opening its rooms for a lively after-work format: with inspiring guided tours through the exhibitions, practical workshops and discussions with artists. Here, photography is not only viewed, but also discussed, tried out and thought through together.

The museum visit becomes a meeting place: drinks, relaxed music and time for exchange create an open space for the art scene, photography enthusiasts and the curious. WHAT A NIGHT! combines knowledge and pleasure, professional perspectives and personal encounters - and makes the Friday evening a fixed point for everyone who wants to celebrate photography with us.
