Join Ariana Maki from the University of Idaho for an art historian’s perspective on select works in the current exhibitions, including The Mirror that Nature Holds: From the Collections of Jordan Schnitzer and His Family Foundation. Open discussion among tour participants will be encouraged throughout the tour and will be facilitated by Dr. Maki and museum staff.
Community Perspectives Talks & Tours invite individuals from our campus and wider community to speak about their unique interpretation of several works in the current exhibitions, charting connections among art, personal experience, and different disciplines.
