Pop-Up Exhibition: Enlightenment

The joys and perils of education may seem long ago for some, so let’s refresh memories and enlighten young minds with a nostalgic set of images celebrating our thirst for knowledge. Featuring artists from the United States, Europe and Mexico, enjoy viewing a special selection of works from the 16th to 21st century.

Museum admission is always free on Thursdays. On the third Thursday of each month, the museum remains open until 9 pm.
