Noted programs and features

Due to its popularity, “Curator’s Choice” will return with Dr. Jane Glaubinger’s selection of works from each dealer in varied price ranges she considers of exceptional interest and worthy of acquisition by the museum. Dr. Glaubinger will lead a tour of the dealers’ booths at 7:00 p.m. at “A Prints of a Party.” “Curator’s Choice” prints will be on view and available for sale throughout the Fine Print Fair.
