Museum of Art

Join us for a post-lecture lunch led by Tamar Meyer Professor of Geography Pete Nelson. This event is free and open to all and $5 donations are appreciated. 

Families and visitors ages 5 and up are invited to enjoy a variety of free activities, including sketching and hands-on art making inspired by works from the Museum’s collection. Stop by the MAC Lobby to create your own artwork, play family-friendly art-themed BINGO, and participate in guided gallery drawing experiences.

Student tour guides will be stationed throughout the galleries, ready to share insights, answer questions, and chat about their favorite works in the collection.

The Roots of Change Exhibition Opening 

“Afterlives of South Italian Vase Painting: Restoration and Fabrication of Ancient Art in Eighteenth-Century Naples”

Vanish is described as a “eulogy for a rural way of life that is disappearing, but it also serves a clarion call for all of us to preserve what’s left and what matters.” The screening will be followed by a Q&A and a reception with photographer and producer, Jim Westphalen. 

Peter Nelson, Tamar Meyer Professor of Geography

In this lecture, Dr. Jeffrey Katzin of the Akron Art Museum will share insights gained from his experience curating the exhibition Michelangelo Lovelace: Art Saved My Life, which debuted in Akron and is now on view at the Middlebury College Museum of Art. Katzin will discuss Lovelace’s intensively dedicated fusion of art and life, his simplified but powerful style, and his resonant approaches to politics and Black identity.
