December 28 Free the Marbles

On the last Friday of the month, the Art Museum is free from 5PM-8. So start your new year's resolution to see more free art early. It would also be an excellent opportunity to see the collage-paintings of Sang-Ah Choi in the Apex area of the Pacific Northwest collection on the top floor of the main building. Not sure how access to the special exhibit from the British Museum of Greek and Roman marbles works on free night. Interestingly the first works acquired by the museum were plaster reproductions of Greek and Roman reliefs, still on display in the lower ballroom. The project predated Nashville's Parthenon project.
