The GAC Winter Art Salon offers an opportunity to participate in a conversation about the arts, rather than remain passive as an audience member.

For this first series of 4 meetings, the topic is assessing the virtual exhibition experience, which the museums have developed over time in order to enhance their on-site shows. Our conversations will take a deep dive into the whole experience, beginning with an overview of the curators’ theme/thesis, a brief slide presentation of the main works of art, and then a brief tour of the museum’s website wherein we can experience the virtual presentation online.

Each segment (theme, content, and website presentation) will be the focus for a discussion. Preparation for these salons is recommended in order to fully engage in the three conversational segments conducted during the hour we meet on Zoom.
