March 12 Has It Really All Been Done Before

The Art Museum has a surprisingly active engagement with Portland artists alive and local. An example are a regular series of informal talks by Portland artists in the museum starting with pieces in the collection which inspire them. Artist TJ Norris has selected work by Sol Lewitt and Marcel Duchamp as his starting point. If interested, meet promptly at 6PM at the side entrance by the courtyard. Drinks and discussion finish the evening. The museum is rarely free and this is no exception, so you will have to pay admission, which would argue for making an afternoon of it. Note you can join for a year of unlimited admission for $55 for one person or $85 for two. At the Portland Art Museum www.pam.org 1219 SW Park 6PM $10, 9 students
