It’s officially that part of winter where we start to crave color. The Currier is here for you with a March full of color.
Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day with artmaking, storytelling, and inspiration at the Currier Museum of Art. This community event, hosted in partnership with the Racial Unity Team and generously sponsored by Citizens, is free and open to all. Â
Now, we can walk into the Currier and see it: our capacity to create and connect at a higher level, even with our feet firmly planted in this ordinary life. This December, we’re coming together around wonder at the Currier. The theme of the museum’s fourth annual December Days is Winter Wonders: Pattern and Play. On Friday, December 26 and Saturday, December 27, we invite visitors of all ages and abilities to make, share, and enjoy art in a peaceful environment.Â
You can’t miss the big red heart at the entrance of the Currier’s newest exhibition, Embellish Me: Works from the Collection of Norma Canelas Roth and William Roth. Titled Atrium of Flowers, it’s a work by artist Miriam Schapiro, one of the founders of the Pattern and Decoration movement in the 1970s.
Decoration. It’s a word with the power to conjure everything from pretty surfaces to festive memories. A garland of ivy strung across the mantle for the holidays. The fading floral wallpaper in your grandmother’s house. Fairy lights adorning the boring, bare walls of your first apartment.Â
The Currier Museum of Art announces that it received $77,300 in financial support from its day of charitable gaming at Revo casino this year.
