Location: 

Harvard Art Museums, 32 Quincy Street

Celebrate the fall harvest season by feasting with your neighbors! Join the Harvard Ed Portal in collaboration with the Harvard Art Museums and the Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard, for a special evening inspired by the Animal-Shaped Vessels from the Ancient World: Feasting with Gods, Heroes, and Kings exhibition, on view at the Harvard Art Museums through January 6, 2019.

Start the night off with a visit to the Ceramics Program to see Raise a Glass, an exhibition featuring contemporary responses to the ancient objects in Animal-Shaped Vessels. Then head next door to the Ed Portal to experience feasting traditions from the ancient world through food, drink, music, and performance inspired by the cultures—and creatures—represented in the museums’ exhibition.

The program will take place at the Harvard Ed Portal, located at 224 Western Avenue, in Allston, Massachusetts.

Tickets are required for this event and cost $10 per person. Your ticket is inclusive of all food, drink, and entertainment, and each attendee will also receive a complimentary admission pass to the Harvard Art Museums. This event is open only to participants aged 21 and older.

Tickets are available by phone, online, or in person beginning at noon on Friday, October 19, through the Harvard Box Office. For more information, please visit the Harvard Box Office website.
