On 3 April, it's Thursday Late again. This edition, MSK will collaborate with the Ghent tattoo studio NOIR for a real Flash Tattoo Night. Become a canvas yourself on which the museum collection is immortalised, take part in a drawing session or come and enjoy the new Jules De Bruycker exhibition.
Flash Tattoo Night
Eleven tattoo artists from Ghent tattoo studio NOIR each designed unique designs inspired by the MSK's collection in their own style. You can choose a tattoo during this Thursday Late and have it placed at the MSK!
Beware: each artist only has time for 4 tattoos, and each design will only be tattooed once and the places are limited so come on time. From 17:00 you can register at the reception with museum ticket. Prices start from 80 euros, depending on the design. Pay at NOIR.
Couldn't get a tattoo because places are full or your favourite design has already been chosen by someone else? Then you will receive a 10% reduction voucher to spend later at NOIR's tattoo studio.
For interested visitors who do not want a permanent tattoo, temporary tattoos and henna are also available.
Drawing session
Accompanied throughout the evening, you can also take part in a drawing session inspired by the MSK collection.
Rondleiding Jules De Bruycker
De Gentse kunstenaar Jules De Bruycker (Gent 1870-1945) was niet alleen een buitengewone graficus. Tot op heden bleef een kernaspect van zijn oeuvre, namelijk het getekende werk, onderbelicht. Deze rondleiding neemt je mee doorheen het werk en leven van de Gentse observator; De Bruycker is een meesterlijke observator van de manier waarop de mens zich in groep, maar ook als individu gedraagt: op straat, op de wekelijkse markten, in het theater, in de kerk.
Thursday Late
Besides the Flash Tattoo Night, Late Thursday offers plenty of other activities. Take part in a drawing session, feast your eyes on the new Jules De Bruycker exhibition, or explore the museum collection in the evening peace and quiet. Our audio guides are always at your disposal too, with the possibility of thematic tours around LGBTQ+ in the collection or the contemporary vision of the Schoonvolk crew.
Besides the MSK, many other Ghent Museums will also be open during Late Thursday. Find out all about it via the gentsemusea.be website
