What does Nadia Hussein say about evening visitors?

Many museums now open late for adult-only evenings, with bars, music and no children. Curator Nadia Hussein is enthusiastic. 'Visitors who rarely come in the day suddenly discover that the objects are fascinating,' she says. Yet she worries that the events can become about the party rather than the art. At her own museum, she has asked staff to place short talks between the performances so that the collection stays central. Early figures are encouraging: nearly half of evening visitors say they will return in daytime. Whether the figures reflect lasting interest or merely good intentions, though, remains to be seen.
