Participate in a gallery-inspired costume contest

Don’t just admire the art—become it! Choose an artwork currently on view and let it inspire your Halloween costume. Then, show off your artistic interpretation for a chance to win a prize! On the night of the event, snap a photo of your costume alongside your chosen artwork, then scan one of the QR codes located throughout the Museum to submit your photo. Winners will be announced at 9 p.m. in front of the main stage.
