About this event
Salon members and above are invited to join us for a special Salon Session with Jonathan deLima, Director of Installations, and Zac Quick, Associate Preparator. Jonathan and Zac will share a behind-the-scenes perspective of the installation of “Let Us Gather in a Flourishing Way: Contemporary Latinx Painting” , which opened on October 23, in the Anna K. Meredith and W.T. and Edna M.
Dahl Galleries. As we move through the galleries, they will share stories about the installation of the diverse works of art, discuss the process of working with artwork from another museum, and offer a firsthand account of the teamwork, expertise, and creative problem-solving that happens long before an exhibition opens to the public. If you’ve ever wondered how the magic comes together in our galleries, this is your chance to find out.
