MAM After Dark: The Blue Room

Join us for MAM After Dark: The Blue Room on May 15 from 7pm-11pm.

Slip into a late-night jazz lounge where cool sounds, low light, and after-hours energy transform the Museum into Milwaukee’s most atmospheric jazz destination. Inspired by Gertrude Abercrombie: The Whole World Is a Mystery, the night leans into moody surrealism, intimate performances, and a sense of intrigue that lingers in every gallery. The evening vibe shifts from smoky lounge to late-night pulse, closing out with a DJ set that keeps the energy alive. Mysterious, immersive, and effortlessly cool—this is After Dark at its most atmospheric.

Dress the part for a night of moody elegance and late-night allure. Think classic jazz lounge meets surrealist edge—sleek silhouettes, dark tones, vintage glamour, and a touch of the unexpected. If it feels a little mysterious, a little bold, and effortlessly cool, you’re right on note.
