Monthly Nights at The Joslyn events are evenings for art immersion. Come out for gallery talks, live music, art making, special programs, and tasty food and drinks (for purchase). This month we’re looking at the breadth of the European collection, which offers a remarkable journey through six centuries of European art history, and celebrating the work of Impressionist artists and the movement that began 150 years ago. Drop in for variety of activities offered throughout the evening, and don’t miss the featured Curator Conversation, 6-6:45 pm, when Taylor J. Acosta, PhD, Chief Curator & Willis A. Strauss Curator of European Art, and Rebecca Manning, Rae and Bill Dyer Curatorial Assistant, share stories and insights about the reinstallation, conservation, and new works in of the European Art galleries.
A closer look at the fun this month from 5-8 pm:
