Description
In our fast-paced modern world, MMoA invites you to take one hour, once a month, to unplug, unwind, and simply contemplate art in Speaking of Art—part gallery talk, part discussion, where we take the opportunity to look at art up close, in person, and from diverse perspectives. Featured speakers include curators, artists, educators, and more.
