VISUAL ARTS

A Matter of Taste, our wonderful annual wine tasting benefit, is scheduled for Saturday evening, November 6th, 2010 from 7pm to 10 pm. Join us for an elegant evening of delicious food, wine and some of the very best contemporary art in the region. For many, this event is a perfect introduction to the Danforth Museum of Art. Visitors are able to see outstanding exhibitions of contemporary artwork, as well as selections from our permanent collection, while sampling select wines from around the world. Whether comparing 19th century painting to 20th century installation, or chardonnay to merlot, this event reminds us that an individual's response is always personal. The sampling of wines perfectly illustrates that there is no one correct response in visiting the Museum. As with so much else, art is a matter of taste and our mix of exhibitions always has much to offer.
