Zürich's Long Night of Museums

There’s no better occasion to discover the remarkable diversity of Zurich’s museums than during Zurich’s Long Night of Museums, when exhibitions, collections, and a vibrant programme of events transform night into day. Whether your interests lie in art, architecture, design, cultural history, non-European cultures, natural science, or the worlds of plants and animals, there is something for everyone.

On 5 September, Kunsthalle Zürich will be open until 2 am.

At Löwenbräukunst (where Kunsthalle Zürich, Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, and Museum Haus Konstruktiv come together) a diverse programme awaits, featuring workshops for all ages, exhibition tours, concerts, delicious food from LOI Vegetarian Bistro, and plenty of surprises. We look forward to welcoming you!

The programme at Kunsthalle Zürich:

6 pm–2 am
Exhibition: Henrik Olesen, Copies of real-life objects, tools and things

6.30–8.30 pm
Paper weaving workshop with Alba Sulser and the Kunsthalle Zürich art mediation team
Location: Kunsthalle Zürich Studio
In times of breakneck speed, how can we digest information, images and materials? One way to do so is to sit, create together and exchange ideas. Away from the world wide web, spinning instead an analogue web, weaving together paper strips so something new (or old) emerges. This is not performance-driven crafting, instead we’ll see where and how being creative can be fun. We’ll offer a variety of suggestions of how dividing, collaging and cutting might go. Bring your own refuse paper and photos if you wish.
