Blaffer Art Museum

Join inaugural Artist in Research artist Erika Blumenfeld at the Blaffer Art Museum for an intimate conversation about her most recent project, a new print edition commissioned and produced by Blaffer Art Museum, which charts the paths of meteorites.

Experience the Blaffer as a space for dialogue and reflection during the museum’s extended hours. Designed to spark creativity and connections, Thursdays at the Blaffer include exhibition tours, hands-on activities, and refreshments.

Join Chicago-based artist Maria Gaspar in a workshop and conversation to consider the ways in which we practice freedom. Gaspar’s Punch Parties engage with her Disappearance Jail archive, which has been collecting images of jails, prisons, and detention centers across the U.S. since 2021.
