MOM BRAIN - A Field Trip to the Art Institute

Join us this month for our inaugural MOM BRAIN Night Out! We’ll be taking a field trip to the Art Institute of Chicago to see "Mary Cassatt: After Impressionism." The museum’s Director of Interpretation will introduce the exhibition; afterwards she’ll join us for a discussion of Cassatt's work and depictions of motherhood [location TBA], and we’ll have a drink somewhere nearby.

If you’ve been wanting to join our monthly readings but can’t because of scheduling, or find yourself missing college humanities seminars and in need of a night out away from dinner and bedtime duties, this is for you!

(Please note that this doesn’t replace our regular Mom Brain reading, which is scheduled for 10 AM on November 13 @ Little Gems with the inimitable Sara Levine!))

WHEN: Thursday, November 19 at 6:15pm (METRA 354 will get you to Ogilvie by 5:50!)

WHERE: Art Institute of Chicago (we’ll meet in the lobby of the Modern Wing)

HOW TO SIGN UP: Please register here so we know to expect you.

OTHER DETAILS: We’ll send a contact phone number and any event updates out to the RSVP list, as well as some (optional) materials you can read before the exhibit and our discussion. Please note that while the Art Institute is free on Third Thursdays evenings and there is no charge to attend the MOM BRAIN portion of the event, attendees will be responsible for purchasing a ticket to the Mary Cassatt exhibit ($7) unless you qualify for free entry. (Art Institute members enter for free!)
