Celebrate the two exhibitions opening at the Colby College Museum of Art this month, Act of Sight: The Tsiaras Family Photography Collection and The Poetics of Atmosphere: Lorna Simpson’s Cloudscape and Other Works from the Collection.

At 6 pm, we will have a Virtual Gallery Tour of Act of Sight: The Tsiaras Family Photography Collection, with introductions from Jacqueline Terrassa, Carolyn Muzzy Director, followed by a tour of the exhibition with Beth Finch, Chief Curator. There will be a Q&A at the end of the tour. Pre-register for this Zoom webinar here
