Explore “Galeriju vēlās ceturtdienas” — Riga’s Monthly Art Adventure
Rīga is a city full of surprises — from scenic riverfront marinas to buzzing art scenes — and one of the most captivating cultural experiences you can catch here is “Galeriju vēlās ceturtdienas”, also known as Riga Last Thursdays.
What Is “Galeriju vēlās ceturtdienas”?
Held on the last Thursday of every month, Riga Last Thursdays transforms the city’s contemporary art galleries into lively cultural hubs late into the evening. Between 18:00 and 22:00, dozens of galleries across the city open their doors for free, welcoming both art lovers and curious explorers alike.
It’s the perfect way to combine an urban stroll with creative discovery — wander through diverse exhibitions, meet artists and creatives, join curator-led tours, or take part in hands-on workshops across Rīga.
