Women's History Month:

Meet the Artist Event --

"Ephemeral Threads Exhibition"

 

The Noyes Museum of Art

 

The Noyes Museum of Art is delighted to celebrate “Women’s History Month” by featuring a Meet-the-Artists roundtable discussion on Sunday, March 13, 2005 from 2-4 p.m. for its current exhibition Ephemeral Threads.**  This exhibit highlights the work of seven female artists who investigate diverse concepts that range from the metaphysical to autobiographical subject matter.  Material usage from dresses and laundry to paper and nylon is a unifying element.  This exhibit examines how female artists are dealing with issues of femininity in the twenty-first century.

 

(** this event conflicts with NOW-NJ's Women Making History event.)
