The Parrish Art Museum, a distinguished repository of American art, has many reasons to celebrate the first summer in its new Herzog & de Meuron-designed building. On Saturday, July 13, 2013, the Museum will host its Midsummer Party, where hundreds of artists, philanthropists, socialites, and business leaders will gather to fête the Museum on its new grounds. The Museum’s first-ever collection-focused audio guide debuted in May with a new, free application that will enable iPhone users to access collection images and related material from anywhere. The Parrish now stays open until 8pm Fridays, during which time programs are presented and the café remains open for socializing and dinner.
