TAM Docents: Hide/Seek Podcasts from the National Gallery

Hello Docents-

Below are a couple of podcasts that tie into the Hide/Seek exhibition from the National Gallery website. Interesting stuff.

I placed an order for the Hide/Seek catalog today so that we will have the opportunity to start the readings therein. If you have ideas about what you would like to see in terms of training opportunities for this and other upcoming exhibitions, I am working on training calendars now and your feedback would gladly be taken into consideration as I move forward on that.

It is not clear whether this piece will be included in the exhibition here yet but I included it because there is some interesting information that could still be useful in regards to Marsden Hartley.

 

 

Thank you for all that you do for Tacoma Art Museum!
