Join artist, educator, and storyteller Natalie Daise for a special morning of looking, reflecting, and creating inspired by the Museum's exhibition When I See Myself, I See…
The program begins with a guided gallery talk led by Daise, inviting participants to explore themes of identity, representation, and self-expression through the exhibition.
