Art Talk & Tour

Monday, October 2, 2017
11:30 AM–12:30 PM

Make connections with the art in the Rubin’s galleries through a theater presentation followed by a lively group discussion on a variety of exciting topics. Art Talk & Tour themes will alternate each month. Each program includes an hour-long exploration of Himalayan art and culture beginning in the theater, followed by a gallery tour led by Rubin Museum docent Denise Murphy, RN, PhD.

This monthly program coincides with the Rubin’s Senior Mondays, when adults 65 and older receive free admission to the galleries.

Senior Mondays are supported in part by the Milton & Sally Avery Arts Foundation.
