In our new, expanded format, SAM will stay open until 8pm on the last Thursday of each month to give you an evening of art, creativity, drinks and music.

Join us for SAM at Sunset on 30 March. From hands-on, creative workshops to illuminating exhibition tours and live music. SAM at Sunset is a full museum experience!

Polyglot Theatre bring their popular children's workshop FEAST to SAM, where children are invited to fill their imaginations on creating the dishes of their dreams.
