Summer Evening on the Museum Steps: AFTER ART at the State Museum Schwerin

AFTER ART transforms the outdoor steps of the State Museum Schwerin into a summer lounge with drinks, music, and views of the Burgsee and Schwerin Castle. The format invites you to wind down the evening in an open, cultured exhibition atmosphere and experience art, architecture, and urban landscape up close.

An Art Experience Between Everyday Life and Evening Sun

The event emphasizes a unique mix of lightness and cultural depth. Those taking a seat on the museum steps not only find a lively meeting place but also the dialogue between the present and the collection. The location itself acts like a stage: light, water, historic facades, and the new openness of the house combine to create an aesthetic experience with a particular spatial impact.

The Museum as an Open Cultural Space

Since 2018, the State Museum Schwerin has been part of the State Palaces, Gardens, and Art Collections of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The museum is known for its ducal art collections, treasures of international significance, and outstanding Dutch painting of the 17th century. After modernization, the museum presents itself as a digital, inclusive, and family-friendly place where art history becomes tangible.

Guided Tours, Collections, and Inspiring Surroundings

In summer, the museum opens longer on Thursdays and invites you to combine the evening with a tour of the collections. Barrier-free accesses, elevators, wheelchair-friendly offers, and inclusive mediation formats make the visit attractive for many target groups. This results in an art experience that not only feels festive but is also pedagogically well thought out.

Why the Visit is Worth It

AFTER ART is aimed at everyone who wants to experience art not just as an observer but in a special exhibition atmosphere. The combination of lounge, music, museum steps, and views of one of Schwerin's most beautiful panoramas makes this summer event an impressive cultural moment. Anyone wanting to experience art, architecture, and urban landscapes as a unit should live this evening in person.
