Open Tuesday - Sunday, 10a - 5p | Thursday 10a - 8p
Join us at the Minnesota Humanities Event Center for a conversation at the intersection of artwork, images, and writing based upon the catalogue “A Nation Takes Place: Navigating Race and Water in Contemporary Art.” Edited by Tia-Simone Gardner and Shana M. griffin, the book is a companion to the art exhibit “A Nation Takes Place,” currently on view at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum in Winona (through March 2, 2025).
Winona’s famous piano duo brings us ‘en bateau’ (French for ‘in a boat’) through a romantic program exploring water, boat rides, and beautiful melodies. The Minnesota Marine Art Museum’s new rotating exhibit Fluid: What is Marine Art and What Can it Be?, offers a companion to the music that invokes images of Venetian gondoliers and rocking, swaying vessels in which audiences can envision themselves sailing on majestic waters.

With additional support from the Terra Foundation for American Art, the Minnesota Marine Art Museum is co-hosting a series of national convenings as part of the A Nation Takes Place project, bringing together artists, writers, curators, scholars, community organizers, and art professionals at critical waterways in the United States to further discussion, knowledge sharing, and cultivating networks to address new and emerging scholarship, curatorial practices and artistic expression that centers Indigenous and Black voices within the marine art and maritime genre.
