The Museum will be transformed 
for this amazing and fun night,
so come and dress the part
for even more fun!
 
The Fresno Art Museum staff and Board of Trustees partner with craft cocktail purveyor Lucy's Lounge to present The Grand Gatsby Speakeasy: Casino Night at the Museum, a fun and lively fundraiser to be hosted on the evening of Saturday, April 27, 2019 from 7 to 11 pm. The event will take place throughout the Museum and Sculpture Garden, incorporating gaming tables, silent auction, specialty craft cocktails, craft beer from Full Circle Brewing Company, a cigar bar, passed light hors d'oeuvres from Mama Mia's and Elbow Room, silent films, and musical entertainment with a 1920s flair, including singer Olga Bergstrom. And more!
 
Guests can play roulette, blackjack, and other traditional casino games. Your playing chips can then be redeemed throughout the evening to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win some fantastic prizes.
 
Lucy's Lounge, a leader in the Valley's craft cocktail movement, enlists some of Fresno's top mixologists to serve up traditional and custom-crafted specialty drinks. Beer, wine, and specialty non-alcoholic options will also be available for purchase.
 
To add to the speakeasy vibe, a cigar bar will be situated outdoors in the Museum's gorgeous Sculpture Garden. Folks will be able to order an Old Fashioned, purchase a quality cigar, and support the museum all at the same time.
 
The ticket price is $40 per person and includes playing chips to get people started. All proceeds benefit the Fresno Art Museum's educational programs and exhibitions.
