Openings at art galleries can be a fun, cheap night out. I'm on a couple of mailing lists so find out about gallery events locally. I don't know what the art scene is like in other cities, but it's pretty casual here. Events are publicized and don't require formal invitations.
A couple of weeks ago, we went to an opening for a group show. They had a dj, some food and wine. We drank the wine, looked around, considered lifting a set of the Ikea wineglasses they were using and went to another party that had better food and alcohol. It was actually a party in the artists studio and he was auctioning off a painting to start a scholship fund somewhere.
It seems that there's always an art gallery, art crawl or art-a-whirl going on. Some of the galleries have great parties; next week Rogue Buddha's having a Christmas Halloween party. I mean, why not get it all taken care of at once? Some of the galleries have great parties, others aren't so great.
