UPCOMING PROGRAMS
SLOW ART DAY (virtual program)
Saturday, April 10, 2021 | 10:30 a.m. & 2:30 p.m.
Slow Art Day is a global event with a simple mission: to help more people discover for themselves the joy of looking at and loving art.

Join us online for a free-flowing conversation centered on finished works and fragments by sculptor Auguste Rodin, which are all part of the museum's collection. We'll not only focus on what we see, but what meaning we derive from looking. The goal is to focus on the art…and the art of seeing! This experience will be led by Maryhill Museum of Art’s Curator of Education, Louise Palermo.

CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
CONNECTIONS — TEACHERS AS ARTISTS
Each year, Maryhill showcases teacher talent by inviting educators to participate in Teachers as Artists, a juried exhibition in the museum’s MJ Murdock Charitable Trust Education Center. In 2021 we invited regional arts educators to submit work around the theme Connections, to bring a focus to people, places, or things that have connected our lives during the past year. Teachers As Artists features artwork in a variety of media by 21 arts educators from Washington. The exhibition is on view at the museum through April 25, 2021. You can also view Connections — Teachers as Artists online here.
The exhibition was juried by Dylan McManus, Dean of Library and Learning Commons at Columbia Gorge Community College and a nationally recognized printmaker. The exhibition is presented in partnership with Washington Art Education Association and Tacoma Museum of Art.
