Liberty Talks

Liberty Talks brings the exhibition The Statue of Liberty: From Bartholdi to Warhol to life with two dynamic talks exploring the many meanings of this iconic figure. Experience a one-of-a-kind gallery tour with special guest moments woven throughout, then enjoy an exclusive space in the Library with an espresso cart, poetry, and space to connect with fellow art lovers.

Explore interactive art experiences, join in thoughtful conversation, and grab a bite from local food truck Smoke n’ Slice as you move through the day. Come curious and stay awhile.
