The big night is almost here! The full schedule for GOLDEN, our FREE 50th anniversary community art party on FRIDAY, DEC. 9, is now online at bpac.co/e:1930. Locally sourced art and music will be everywhere—not just in the galleries but on the outside walls, in stairwells and hallways, and all over the damn place. (We're even turning the freight elevator into a stage!) Hip hop, jazz, indie rock, shoegaze, you name it, our musicians and DJs will be playing it! Watch out for the giant inflatable room, QR code activated pieces, a 3 hour durational performance, and much more—one GOLDEN night only! All ages, no cover charge, free food, and a cash bar. Current members get a bonus FREE gift, and newbies can save 20% on a membership. See YOU @ the party!

An Honest Museum Audio Tour

Shouts & Murmurs: You’re thinking that this type of painting is easy, and that you could do it. It’s not, and you couldn’t.

“This oil painting, like the eight preceding it, is of a table with fruit on it. There wasn’t a lot to paint back then.”

Follow the link at the top for more acidic observations you wish you could give/hear on audio tours.

I would love to give honest tours like this. And people would probably love to go on them as well…
