The gallery’s adult program allows for access to artwork through both discussion and hands on studio programming for each exhibition. Links are created from contemporary art to it’s ancestral past to provide a greater understanding of the direction and issues in contemporary art. Often related to an individual artist or group of artists, lectures and hands on workshops place international, national and regional artists and movements in a framework that helps viewers understand the work in both a global and historical context.
