Huntington Art Gallery Loggia and East Lawn
Attend spotlight talks and gallery activities related to the exhibition "The Hilton Als Series: Njideka Akunyili Crosby" organized by the Yale Center for British Art, and currently on view in The Huntington Art Gallery.
Huntington high school volunteers will be on hand on the Huntington Art Gallery Loggia to help visitors create their own portrait collage exploring themes of family, identity, history, place, and space. If you're ready to learn a new skill, visit our Braille team to learn more about how people with visual impairments read and write. Be sure to say hello to our volunteers, Ethan Derick and his team, and learn how the Braille code works.
Finally, be sure to take some time to relax on the East Lawn and contribute to our collaborative paper quilt, sharing a little bit of yourself with The Huntington community.
