Art Encounters: Memory and Nostalgia

Sometimes art creates an emotional yearning for a bygone time or place. The artist sets the stage for the viewer to be transported to a scene that exists outside of the current time and space.

Join Benton educators for an interactive two-part workshop exploring a theme from the exhibitions on view.

Using works on view in the current exhibitions, we will use close looking to see how artists have used their art to invite viewers to reminisce about something from the past. The program will conclude with participants decorating their own memory journal.
