Student Night at the Museum

October 3, 2025

Some Friday evening deep into the throes of each semester, cocktail dresses, wrinkled suits and funky corduroy pants find an occasion to emerge: Student Night at the Museum. Among charcuterie spreads and a bar calling back to some Great Gatsbyian image of luxury, students gather under the pretense of seeing art. The event is better described as a sort of performative contemplation, often under the influence of some tasteful imbibing and in the jovial company of friends. Photographs abound—both sprawling across the exhibition walls and posed artfully among statues, lions and imposing portraits. From Lois Langbein, the wonderfully inviting security guard, to the crowds milling about increasingly cramped gallery spaces or dodging runaway sprinklers, this mosaic of moments seeks to create a stained glass window of the weekend: vibrant, glittering alive.
