We welcome you to an evening of art, hors d’oeuvres, drinks, and community, hosted by our beloved Chuck Locke. This opening reception is part of a four day weekend of activities.

Our theme this year is complemented by the Museum’s current exhibition, Zanele Muholi: Somnyama Ngonyama, Hail the Dark Lioness. Through this ongoing photographic project, South African queer visual activist Zanele Muholi presents a visionary mosaic of identities, an exquisite empire of selves. The exhibition will be open all evening, and a guided tour of the exhibition will be offered at 5:30 PM by Beth Finch, Lunder Curator of American Art.
