Fall 2024 Exhibitions
How do we connect to our sense of place? Is it through cultural traditions, relationships, political and spiritual beliefs, landmark events, or future aspirations? Our latest exhibitions and gallery rotations explore the sense of place, particularly using quilted, tactile, ephemeral materials, and found objects.
Support for exhibitions at the Fleming Museum of Art provided by the Kalkin Family Exhibitions Fund, the 1675 Foundation, and the Walter Cerf Exhibitions Fund.
