Join Museum Docents for an in-depth exploration of a single work of art. These 30-minute, interactive gallery talks spark connections and conversation about the featured object's history, meaning, and relationship to other works in the collection.

Emil Bisttram, a founding member of the Transcendental Painting Group, sought to move art "beyond the appearance of the physical world" through new ideas of space, light, and design. Join Docent Sally Cook for a discussion of Composition #18, Bisttram's abstract work evoking balance, harmony, dynamic movement, and a sense of spiritual resonance.

Included with general admission.
