Members’ Preview: Chris Schanck: Off-World

Fri, Feb 11 / 10 am–2 pm

Members are invited to preview our first 2022 exhibition, Chris Schanck: Off-World, guest curated by Andrew Blauvelt. Chris Schanck’s creative practice navigates the realms of art, design, and craft, but his sculptural furniture represents an altogether otherworldly experience. Explore Schanck’s elaborately carved, colorfully hued, and lustrous objects, including new works created for this exhibition. 

10 am–2 pm Members-only preview
11 am–12 pm Chris Schanck and Andrew Blauvelt in conversation
1 pm–1:30 pm Guided tour of the exhibition

Throughout the event, enjoy 20% off purchases in The Store at MAD with many unique selections for your Valentine!
