Print Club: Treasures from the Vault

Event Details

Members of Print Club are invited to a summer social hour followed by an illuminating talk with Senior Curator Laura Burkhalter in the Des Moines Art Center’s newly renovated A.H. Blank Gallery and Kyle and Sharon Krause Galleries.

Currently on view are some of the Art Center’s finest works on paper, spanning over a century of art history. As these works are rare, fragile and sensitive to light, they are not often on exhibit. This is a unique opportunity to see these beautiful works on paper and gain a deeper appreciation for the Art Center’s expansive collection.

5 – 6 pm | Social hour with refreshments
The Café at the Art Center

6 – 7 pm | Gallery Talk with Senior Curator Laura Burkhalter
A.H. Blank Gallery and Kyle and Sharon Krause Gallery

Space is limited, register online by August 15.
