Join us for Art Alive, a drop-in gallery visit and art-making experience for general audiences that takes place every Saturday and Sunday. This Saturday,  2019 Artist Studio resident Chang Yuchen will be on the floor of Carrie Moyer and Sheila Pepe: Tabernacles for Trying Times facilitating discussions of Sheila Pepe's Common Sense. Visitors will also be invited to contribute to Yuchen's "Social Crochet" project inspired by the themes of queerness and resilience present in the exhibition. 

Art Alive is free with museum admission and open to all ages. Discussions and activities are ongoing, so visitors can join at any time between 12 and 2 pm and stay as long as they like. The program is offered in accordance with the Museum’s safe social-distancing practices.

Find us on Floor 4.
