The Rubin Museum presents free acoustic music every Wednesday evening from 6:00”“9:00 p.m at the base of our spiral staircase.
Artists who specialize in music from the Himalayas and South Asia are invited to forge a connection between their music and the art in the galleries.
Additionally, guests can unwind during Himalayan Happy Hour and enjoy with special menu discounts.
