Every last Friday of the month, Art After Dark gets louder and looser for its Pop Session! Women are front and center this Friday: Artist Mickalene Thomas is in conversation with Cheryl Brutvan, Director of Curatorial Affairs and the Glenn W. and Cornelia T. Bailey Curator of Contemporary Art at the Norton. Suzi Analogue performs electronic music that mixes video art and soul and hip-hop music. Express Tours highlight art by women in the collection.
