Join us for a special conversation (Spanish) in the MEMORY gallery of the exhibition Making Room: Familiar Art, New Stories with Verónica Grossi.

Verónica is an Associate Professor in the Languages, Literatures and Cultures department at UNCG.

Making Room: Familiar Art, New Stories presents 43 artworks from the Weatherspoon’s collection of more than 6,500. Each was chosen in response to what more than 4,000 community members told us they care about. The exhibition is organized around the broad theme of caring—of being there—using four spaces dedicated to what we heard people care about: FAMILY, COMMUNITY, PLACE, and MEMORY.

Making Room is on view through Spring 2024.

No registration required. Free and open to all.

The Weatherspoon will also offer several gallery talks this fall in conjunction with Making Room. On October 14, Mei Méndez, assistant director for strategic engagement, will speak with Greensboro-based artist/curator Paula Damasceno about the artworks and artists in the gallery dedicated to FAMILY. On October 25, Curator of Collections and Head of Facilities Elaine D. Gustafson will share insights on the artworks featured in the PLACE gallery. Look for more opportunities to engage with Weatherspoon staff in the exhibition.
