Museum Of Fine Arts Launches Fall Season With All-Night Party

BOSTON (AP) — The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston is launching its new fall season of events this weekend with the first of its free, all-night parties.

The hashtag #mfaNOW series celebrates contemporary art and artists. It kicks off Saturday with Los Angeles-based artist and writer Frances Stark discussing her work, featured in the exhibition "UH-OH: Frances Stark 1991-2015."

Live music, discussions, art-making and other activities will take place throughout the night. Four food trucks will provide a wide range of cuisine while a local graffiti artist will create a large-scale work in the parking lot. The Heartbreakers running club will lead a late-night run around the museum's campus.

The event will also feature the "Insomniac Olympics" at 3 a.m. and early-morning yoga.
