This Film Series opens the MAS 2007-2008 Program Season with our theme "It's All About Art: Scholars Speak" It's All About Art, a multi-year series, examines the joining lines of visual arts, performing arts, and arts and letters. The 2007-2008 program season, "Scholars Speak", features art scholars who give voice to the obvious and not so obvious relationships that influence and inspire these creative processes.
Exhibitions, book signings, and artists salon talks enrich the colorful dialogue.
This event also opens your opportunity for membership in Millennium Arts Salon with expanded benefits including original prints, private receptions with our scholars, and special events and tours. Visit our website at www.millenniumartssalon.org for more information.
