Guest Gallery Talk + Jazz Jam
Immerse yourself in Abercrombie’s world in a setting inspired by her love of music and creativity. Join John Corbett, co-founder of Corbett vs. Dempsey LLC, and the trumpeter Russ Johnson for the Gallery Talk + Jazz Jam through Gertrude Abercrombie: The Whole World Is a Mystery and Gertrude & Friends: The Wisconsin Magical Realists.
Led by Corbett, this gallery talk takes visitors through both exhibitions as live music fills the galleries, highlighting the connections between Abercrombie’s work, the artists in her circle, and the jazz community that helped shape her creative world. This drop-in experience is included with Museum admission and is free for Members. Admission tickets are available at the door or or online. The Milwaukee Art Museum is grateful for its exhibition sponsors.
