Visitors willl also be invited to explore collage using sustainable and recycled materials to create "freedom portals" that lead to their imagined safe spaces.

Art Alive is free with museum admission. Discussions and activities are ongoing, so visitors can join at any time between 12 and 2 pm and stay as long as they like. This program is offered in accordance with the Museum’s safe social-distancing practices.

About the artist-educator

Duneska Michel is an artist, educator, and community organizer who finds that all of their work is innately tethered. Michel's visual work explores and reimagines nations of connectedness throughout the Caribbean. This excavation continued in their practice as a community organizer, working as the founder of of a collective named Guanabana and as an artist-educator as they consider intersectionality in all aspects of their teaching. Michel has continued their work in collaboration with MAD and a number of institutionss and galleries, including NurtureArt, MoMA PS1, No Longer Empty, and the Joan Mitchell Foundation.

Please review our health and safety protocols before you arrive. MAD strongly recommends all visitors six months and older are vaccinated against Covid-19 and visitors ages two and up wear face coverings, even if vaccinated. Thank you for your cooperation.
