The first Sunday of the month is Community Day at NMWA! Visit us on Community Day for FREE admission to the museum—take this opportunity to explore our permanent collection and programs. Current exhibitions include: More is More: Multipleswhich celebrates the functionality and artistry of multiples, artist-designed objects produced in series of identical editions using industrial or commercial processes; and Betsabeé Romero: Signals of a Long Road Together , the latest installation in NMWA’s public art series, the New York Avenue Sculpture Project.
Fierce Women Tours are also available from 1–2 p.m. during Free Community Days. Discover a diverse cast of fierce women artists who refused to let men define their place; pushed back on the limited roles society accorded them; and blazed trails as artists, activists and innovators. If you’ve participated in our “Fierce Women” tour and want more, this is your chance to meet a new squad of pioneering artists. If you are new to the “Fierce Women” family, welcome!
