"First Mondays with the ASQ: Engaging with Playfulness" with with Dr. Maureen Quigley Teaching Professor of Art & Design at UMSL

The arts evolved from a sense of play, but when we enter an Art Museum or Concert Hall, ‘playfulness’ may not be foremost in our minds. How can we transcend the formality of a public event to engage our own sense of play and celebration of the fine arts? Beyond representations of the delightful, a sense of play is an essential element in the arts on many levels. Join Dr. Maureen Quigley, Professor of Art and Design at UMSL, and the Arianna String Quartet in an ongoing conversation about the relationship between the visual and musical arts that will bring you new access to a personal appreciation of every art form.
