In-Person Art Talks
As part of Women’s History Month, we’re delighted to bring back in-person art talks for the first time since early 2020! A docent from the Asian Art Museum, opens a new window will be visiting select libraries to present The Goddess: Images of Power. Using examples from the museum’s collection, learn about the many depictions of goddesses throughout Asia and their roles in the lives of their followers.
