The Institute of Contemporary Art sits on the harbor at the edge of the Seaport. For a night out, the useful hours are Thursday and Friday, when it stays open until 9 PM, and Thursday night is free for everyone from 5 to 9 PM. Reserve the free ticket ahead, since walk-up entry isn’t guaranteed.
The ICA also hosts evening talks, performances and parties. This October that includes its 21+ Halloween party on October 31. Upcoming ICA events are listed below and on the free events page.
After the galleries
Laugh Boston is a short walk inland on Summer Street, if you want stand-up after the galleries.
