Ackland Tour: Curators’ Tour of “Continental Shift” and “Care and Concern”
Join us at the Ackland Art Museum for a special curator-led tour of our current special exhibitions! Peter Nisbet, deputy director for curatorial affairs, and Lauren Turner, associate curator for contemporary art, will lead guests through the galleries and share their insights into the exhibitions.
In this tour, the curators of “Continental Shift: Recent Acquisitions of African Art” and “Care and Concern: Recent Acquisitions of Modern and Contemporary Art” will discuss how these recent acquisitions have expanded and shaped the Museum’s collections of African and contemporary art.
Free, but space is limited; registration required at the Ackland’s event webpage: https://events.ackland.org/event/lt-pn-sept-tour-curators-tour-of-continental-shift-and-care-and-concern/
