Events on October 4, 2012
SPECIAL EVENT Thursday, October 4, 20126 – 7 p.m. Information Desk Curators of the MIA and Brandon Boat
Curators at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts will take you a tour unlike any other offered at the museum. You will travel around the galleries hearing unbelievable stories about different works of art in the collection. If some sound too fantastic to be true, that's because they are. We might be lying to you. Each stop will feature several true stories and one lie. It is up to you to decide which tale is true and which curator is lying to your face. Did we mention that you'll be keeping score? The person with the biggest BS detector will win a prize, while the more gullible visitors will walk away with only stories. The tour is free, so bring a friend.
