Art That Inspires: Curator Tour

Scroll

October 19
1 p.m. - 2 p.m. 
Meet at the Tree of Generations 

The Milken Center for Advancing the American Dream is now open in the heart of Washington, DC—on October 19, we invite you to see it in an entirely new light.  
 
To celebrate National Arts and Humanities Month, we’re opening our doors for two special guided tours of seven monumental art commissions. Just imagine: a quilt large enough to tell the story of generations, vibrant murals that bring dreams to life, and a surreal set of photographs featuring man-made clouds. These behind-the-scenes tours will begin at 1 p.m. at the Tree of Generations.  
 
Commissioning Curator Ashley Molese will lead you through works by MISS CHELOVE, Jessica Gonzales, Basil Kincaid, Suchitra Mattai, Jonathan Rosen, Berndnaut Smilde, and Vexta. Each piece captures a unique perspective within the American Dream, exploring themes of joy, family, reflection, and possibility. 
 
Whether it's your first visit or you're an MCAAD fan, come back, look closer, and discover something new. This tour is included with your October 19 general admission ticket. Reserve your free ticket today!
