Turn up the heat in the Sky Room for an unforgettable evening of rhythm, movement, and creativity. In partnership with Tiempo Latino Dance Company, this vibrant Art After Dark invites you to step onto the dance floor and experience the energy of salsa.

From 7:30 – 8:30 pm, Tiempo Latino instructors will lead a dynamic, beginner-friendly salsa lesson designed to get everyone moving with confidence. Whether you’re brand new to dancing or looking to refine your steps, you’ll learn the fundamentals in a welcoming and lively atmosphere.

From 8:30 – 10 pm, the music keeps flowing as the floor opens for social dancing. Put your new skills into practice, dance with friends, and immerse yourself in the infectious rhythms of salsa.

The creativity doesn’t stop on the dance floor. Throughout the evening, enjoy a hands-on art activity where you’ll craft your own faux stained glass, sip festive libations, and capture the night’s energy at our photo booth.

In To Burn, Forest, Fire, artist Katie Paterson invites us to memorialize the first and last forests through a contemplative incense burning. The scents are inspired by the primordial Cairo Forest of the Hudson Valley and the current composition of the Amazon Forest. The scents feature essential organic and mineral traces that convey vibrant, unique ecosystems. During the performance, you are invited to view visual maps of each incense’s ingredients and quietly consider the forest.

To Burn, Forest, Fire is currently on view in The Sixth Extinction section of Into the Time Horizon. This performance will be hosted monthly during HandsON! Second Saturday, through September.
