This week only...free admission to the Currier!

Now that I've officially recovered from my weekend with Ruby (who absolutely rocked Londonderry...no surprises there!), I've got all kinds of entertainment goodies for all you 18 Milers - art, live music, movies and more! So lets dig in!

Alright, so unless you've been living in a storm sewer with a bunch of Kleenex in your ears, all you Granite Staters know about the extensive expansion project at Manchester's Currier Museum of Art. Now finally completed, the museum is holding its grand reopening this week with free admission from 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.! The museum is also featuring some special public tours for this week only, so take advantage of it!

• 1:00-2:00 p.m. (Tour with Museum Director Susan Strickler: "Director's Choice-Intriguing Works of Art at the Currier")


• 3:30-4:30 p.m. ("A Curator's Look at Reinstalling a Museum's Collections" with Chief Curator Andrew Spahr)

And make sure to mark this next one in advance on your calendars...in September the Currier will present Andy Warhol: Pop Politics, featuring (for the first time) Warhol's paintings, prints, drawings, and photographs of political figures.
