Night of Ideas 2026 - Los Angeles Edition

Mark your calendar! Night of Ideas is coming back to the Wende Museum on Saturday, April 4.

New this year: get ready for an extended all-day program starting in the afternoon. Join us for hands-on workshops in animation filmmaking and climate awareness, a video games forum, a marionette theater performance, and more. The night will unfold with great anticipation, opening with an original musical creation by composer Victor Le Masne followed by an ambitious interdisciplinary lineup spanning art, science, literature, journalism, technology, and performance.

This event will fill the entire museum; stroll through the garden, enjoy food trucks, drinks, music, and an immersive VR installation. The Wende Museum will become a space where generations meet, disciplines intersect, and Los Angeles joins a global movement of ideas – leading the way in cultural and intellectual exchange.

 Don’t miss this free, open-to-the-public event — an unforgettable day of creativity and conversation.
