18.00–21.00
Art Museum RIGA BOURSE invites you to a special evening at the museum – extended opening hours, the current exhibition on view, and the chance to immerse yourself in music inspired by Italian rhythms.

Experience the museum in a new light with an evening ambiance that offers a peaceful and unhurried way to discover art. In the museum’s atrium, enjoy an atmospheric setting enhanced by a curated Italian music selection performed live by DJ ARNIX. Complementing the mood, the restaurant Casa Nostra will provide an authentic Italian gastronomic experience with delicious food and drinks.

“Late Night at the Museum” is a cultural and entertainment rendezvous where art, music, and cuisine come together to create a memorable evening. It’s the perfect opportunity to spend time with friends or colleagues, unwind after work, and explore both the museum’s permanent collection and the current exhibition from a fresh perspective.

The exhibition “Palazzo Madama. Italian Art and Craft from the 6th to the 19th Century”, supported by the Boris and Ināra Teterev Foundation, features over one hundred masterpieces of decorative applied arts from the collection of the Palazzo Madama Museum in Turin, Italy. The works, created between the 6th and 19th centuries, represent outstanding examples of art from workshops and manufactories across Italy, offering a broad insight into the craftsmanship and genius of Italian artisans.

About the museum

The Art Museum RIGA BOURSE is an architectural monument of national importance. It was built between 1852 and 1855 in the style of a Venetian Renaissance palazzo symbolising wealth and plenitude. The building was designed by the St. Petersburg architect of German descent – Harald Julius von Bosse (1812–1894). The museum's permanent display consists of Riga’s foreign art collections, which were accumulated over the centuries and now are part of the collection of the Latvian National Museum of Art.
