Floor 8

Join us to explore The Lost World: The Art of Minnie Evans through conversation and drawing. Together, we’ll consider how artists utilize different sources of inspiration—from memory to nature to the subconscious. We’ll further explore these themes and others through automatic drawing, experimenting with color and shape to create our own works of art alongside teaching artist Jaqueline Cedar.

Art + You welcomes younger adults to share thoughts on artworks on view through close looking and dialogue. These gatherings are a unique way to experience art at the Whitney and make new connections.
