Do you ever feel uncomfortable at a museum? Do you want more from your museum experience? Then this program is for you – Plains Art Museum Curatorial team invites you to join the third Wednesday of each month starting in January to learn about the inner workings of a museum. In this monthly talk series, our team will break down different points of entry in museums from missing pieces in the Plains Art Museum Collection to focusing on why art is framed the way it is and the labels we see on the wall. Each session will have a takeaway for participants. This is a free talk series with all materials included.
What’s up with art theft?
Spend this Wednesday evening diving into the discussion about art theft and fraud. What does it look like? How do people do it? Our curatorial team will highlight some of the best art thefts and frauds in history along with understanding how it has happened in our own region and Plains Art Museum Collection.
