Discussion Series

This program has been postponed. New date will be announced when it is confirmed. Thank you for your understanding. 

In this expansive and educational series of three in-depth talks and conversational gallery tours, art educator Anne Pickard-Vaandering places current art exhibitions in context with wider art histories. Attend one or attend all three for an even broader understanding. These mini art history sessions will leave participants with a better appreciation of current exhibitions, as well as the historical and cultural movements and societal change seen through an art historical lens.

Discussion 1 - February 2: Feminisms through Art

Discussion 2 - March 1: Blood and Bodies: Religion and Science through Art

Discussion 3- April 5: Abstraction through Art
