Art Encounters offers docent-guided tours of Joslyn's collections and special exhibitions on the third Thursday of each month, beginning at 10:30 am. Designed to appeal to all art lovers, from the well-seasoned to the amateur, these monthly programs are a great way to learn about art with others.
Join us for a look at the next Mind's Eye Gallery exhibition organized by the National Center for Children's Illustrated Literature!
