 | | Blink! Light, Sound & the Moving Image Opens March 13
| | Technology changes in the blink of an eye. Just think of how updates and upgrades in technology have affected your life. Blink! Light, Sound, and the Moving Image celebrates this revelation and focuses on electronic art from the past 30 years. Blink! reveals the warmth and humor of technology-based art—often considered mechanical and cold—through pop culture references, performance, music, and the purely sensory. DAM members get exclusive access before it opens to the public during our Member Preview on March 12. Not a member? Join today. Want to learn more? Join curator Jill Desmond, collector Mark Addison, and artist Donald Fodness for a talk about Blink! and Q&A session on March 31. Make a night of it and take advantage of a special prix fixe dinner menu at Palettes. Reservations required.

| New Works on Paper
| | There is always something new to see at the museum. Check out our latest works on paper rotation Watching Me Watching You, opening March 6. At first glance, the drawings in the gallery don't seem to have much in common—some are abstract, some are figurative, and some border on the surreal. Yet they share one significant link—they all reveal the inner workings of the artist's mind.
| | Watching Me Watching You » | | New Hours! | | We've updated our hours at the museum. The entire museum complex is now open until 8 pm on Friday nights, and 10 pm on the final Friday of the month for our Untitled mixed-media events.
We're also opening our doors at 10 am on Sunday. Bring the family down for brunch at Palettes and playtime in our kid-friendly Just For Fun Architecture center. | | New Hours »
| | Take a Spring Studio Class | | Spots are still left in our six-session spring studio classes.
