Gallery Talk (MAM After Dark)
FRIDAY, MAY 15, 5 PM–MIDNIGHT
Gallery Talk at 6:00 PM

Get down with hip-hop, breakdancing, and a live street art demonstration, as TRUE Skool returns to the Museum to deliver another exciting evening that blurs the line between fine art and street art. This local organization for change puts the cultural arts to action: through art, members educate and empower youth from different backgrounds and cultures to become leaders in their communities.

Peek into the inner façade-free worlds of today’s youth in Class Pictures: Photographs by Dawoud Bey—you have exclusive after-hours access to this special exhibition. Inspired to reveal your own colorful dimensions, strike a pose at the Photo Booth in Windhover Hall, and see your image projected on the walls of the Museum—and possibly in our next ad campaign!

Make a mess or a masterpiece at the hugely popular DIY Studio, enjoy light hors d’oeuvres courtesy of Café Calatrava, and jam to the beats brought to you by Tarik Moody from 88Nine Radio Milwaukee. Here’s your chance to socialize with friends (and meet a few new ones) amidst the art and architectural grandeur of the Museum, while enjoying food, drinks, music, and more. See www.mam.org/afterdark for details.
