We are an art museum in a town of 20,000 (and county of 60,000). We hold larger events on Thursday nights (6-8:30) and smaller ones on Sunday afternoons (2-3:30 usually). Our constituents tend to be in church on Sunday morning, Sunday evening, and Wednesday evening, and watching football on Friday and Saturday. Obviously your mileage may vary, but I've noticed that when we go outside of these two slots we usually have far lower attendance. Perhaps it's because people are just used to those slots... not sure? But they are working for us. We have two Friday night fundraisers, but we hold those in spring and early summer so as not to conflict with college football. -- Jill R.
