CraftBoston on the Move at the MFA Boston: Artist Panel and Curator-Led Tour

Posted on Feb. 06, 2024

We all had an exciting time at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston! This event, exclusively for SA+C members, focused on craft in the current exhibition, Tender Loving Care: Contemporary Art from the Collection; the program started with a panel discussion with Marilyn Pappas and Venetia Dale, whose work is included in the show. Then we all went to the exhibition to the gallery with curator Michelle Millar Fisher. The evening culminated with a gathering at Taste Cafe!

*Note that this was the first of two CraftBoston events in this series.  As always, a passion for the handmade is at the heart of the SA+C. Members get involved for the experience of connecting with the art, the artists, and with each other!  This continuity of purpose and a mission of promoting joyful, creative lives through craft guides us in everything we do. We hope to see you at an upcoming event!
