Friday Brown Bag Matinees
The Museum’s free film series is shown at noon on select Fridays in the McKean Pavilion, 161 West Canton Avenue (just behind the Museum). Those attending are invited to bring a lunch. The Museum provides soft drinks and refreshments. Admission is free, although please note that only Museum members may participate in off-site events.
This season’s series of Friday Brown Bag Matinees provides context for Louis Comfort Tiffany’s Laurelton Hall, the featured exhibition in the Museum’s new wing. Tiffany creatively combined artistic ideas from around the world at the estate, including Islamic art, and secured international stature in La Belle Époque, the “beautiful era” from 1890 to 1914.
