Lúmina Comes to the Bechtler
On Saturday, September 19, 2026, the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art presents Lúmina, a party celebrating Latin American Modernism. The evening takes inspiration from the Bechtler’s fall exhibition, Making an Impression: Pioneering Latin American Printmakers. As the museum’s fall fundraiser, Lúmina supports the Bechtler’s world-class exhibitions, educational programs, and community partnerships.
Guests will move through immersive installations, live performances, and DJ-driven sets, alongside Latin American-inspired street food, wines, and spirits, and a relaxed terrace lounge featuring curated tastings and conversation.
The evening sets the tone for a vibrant celebration of art, music, and contemporary Latin American creative expression.
Editor’s Note: Y’all Weekly publisher Sam Spencer serves on the board of directors for the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art.
