offers 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.

From loose exploratory studies for later works to deft masterpieces that unveil an artist’s full facility, the world of drawings offers revealing insights into the creative process. Marks of Genius: 100 Extraordinary Drawings from the Minneapolis Institute of Arts showcases remarkable examples from the museum’s renowned collection, including pen and ink studies, chalk drawings, watercolors, and pastels that span five centuries from the Middle Ages to today.
