Every week, NOMA hosts gallery talks in the museum and the Besthoff Sculpture Garden led by curators, artists, and other special guests. These lively, participatory conversations provide a moment to take a close look at one work—or a selection of works—currently on view.

This week, join Mel Buchanan, NOMA’s RosaMary Curator of Decorative Arts & Design, for a gallery talk on New Acquisitions in Contemporary Craft in the Elise M. Besthoff Foundation Gallery on the second floor of the museum. This talk will be offered at 12:30 and 6:00 pm the same day.

Included with museum admission, which is free for Louisiana residents every Wednesday courtesy of The Helis Foundation’s Art for All initiative. When you arrive at NOMA, check in at the admissions desk for directions to the appropriate location.
