Artist Talk: Adam Henry

Saturday / May 27 / 2:00pm-3:00pm

Originally scheduled for April 29, this talk has been rescheduled for May 27 due to inclement weather.

Join Arlington artist Adam Henry for a conversation about Make Your Mark, the large-scale abstract sculpture Henry designed and built for MoCA Arlington’s lawn. Bright and eye-catching, the work celebrates the Museum’s rebranding and brings energy and life to the lawn space in front of MoCA Arlington’s building. The talk is free and will take place on MoCA Arlington’s front lawn, next to the sculpture.
