About this event

Join us in the Lee Study Center for an exploration of our material world. Each month we will focus on a different material and display works from our collection for close looking. In November, marvel at how artists express themselves using mother of pearl. 🦪

Admission to this event and to the Spencer is free for everyone, always. Free parking is available in designated spaces on the first level of the Mississippi Street garage across from the Museum. Check in at our Welcome Desk with your license plate number for parking validation. 🚗
