Grateful for Art:
Curatorial Conversations and Art Making
Saturday, November 30,
1 p.m.

A special Thanksgiving Weekend program. What are we thankful for and how can we show it visually? Chief Curator Stephanie Plunkett will lead a close looking exploration through the galleries and will share the behind the scenes story of how the Finding Home exhibit came together. Inspired by the art on view participants working individually or in family groups will create gratitude maps using a variety of media including collage. No experience necessary. Free for members, children/teens 18 and under, or included with admission.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
