Join us at the Whitney for an evening of conversation, guided by a Whitney Museum Educator. This session invites younger adult visitors to reflect on select works from Sixties Surreal through close looking and dialogue. This exhibition showcases artists who sought new strategies for connecting art to their lived reality, challenging the status quo of the United States in the 1960s.
Come solo or with your crew, to reflect anew, and share your point of view with a like-minded few.
Afterwards, keep the fun going by joining Free Friday Night!
