Rosethrow®

5:30-8:30 pm on the plaza

In the movie of your life, we already know who will play the charismatic DJ in the scene where you meet up with your friends after work for drinks, food, and culture at the museum. We've cast him. Rosethrow® happens to love playing at the MAC as much as we love having him. Get yourself here and see how the rest of the night plays out. The soundtrack will be perfect.

Gallery Talks with Chris Bovey

If you don't already know him, you likely know his work. If you don't already love him, you will. The artist that has earned his place as Mr. Spokane 2020s specializes in screen prints that recall a Spokane of yore. Chris Bovey is the designer of our current exhibition, Driving the American Dream: 1970's Car Design. Catch one of his two gallery talks!

RJ's So Southern BBQ

5:30-8:30 pm on the plaza

Food is art too and RJ is a master of the sauce and squeeze bottle. He makes some of the best southern BBQ we've had anywhere, and he stands alone this close to the 48th parallel. He'll have brisket, beans, greens, grits, and cornbread available when you get hungry. When you smell the food, you'll get hungry.
