Close Looking: Studio 54

Join Assistant Curator of Community Programs, Melissa Smith, as she shares an audio description of an artwork, one of the techniques used during our Multisensory Program to help remove barriers to our collections. You will hear and learn about creative audio description, a type of spoken language describing visual images or objects, which enables audiences to engage and pursue their own journey in relation to visual art. We will explore a black and white picture of Pat Cleveland, a famous American model, disco dancing from the Studio 54: Night Magic exhibition.
