Each Thursday, join us to spend time with a work of art on view in the Colby Museum’s gallery spaces. This week, Lydia Burke ’24, who worked as the The Howard A. and Gisele B. Miller Curatorial Intern during Summer 2023, will facilitate a conversation focusing on Isolated Masses (For Peace) by Jon Kessler, located in the Lower Jetté Gallery.
Art Break programs are grounded in the practice of slow looking, an educational approach that asks people to give patient, immersive attention to a work of art as a way to make connections and create meaning for yourself. These looking experiences will be facilitated by museum staff, interns, docents, and special guests.
