History doesn’t stop at five o’clock.

Join us after hours on the third Thursday of every month for an evening at the History Center!

Grab a drink from the cash bar, explore six floors of award-winning exhibitions, and enjoy special tours that offer a deeper dive into the Pittsburgh stories you won’t want to miss.

Whether you’re unwinding after work, planning a date night, or gathering with friends, Third Thursdays offer a fresh way to experience the #1 History Museum in America.
