As fall semester classes begin on Wednesday, we are excited to welcome the Bowdoin Class of 2024 to campus. On behalf of the entire staff at the Museum of Art, we look forward to meeting and working with you in the months and years ahead. Although the Museum's galleries will remain closed to the public this fall, we are ready to work with faculty and students. In addition, the Museum will host this fall a series of online programs with various artists, curators, and scholars. You will see new programs for September listed below, and we will continue to send e-Blasts to remind you about upcoming events. We hope that you and your family are remaining well, and we thank you for all your support of the Museum of Art.
