If you’ve visited the Smith College Museum of Art (SCMA) before, there's a decent chance you’ve noticed David Andrews at the front desk, hunched over a piece of paper, pulling out words from a tin box or shading in amorphous forms. David started working at SCMA as a Gallery Assistant (GA) over twenty years ago, shortly after moving to Western Massachusetts from Chicago.
Enjoy a special visit for caregivers and pre-walking babies through SCMA's new exhibition Painting the Persianate World: Portable Images on Paper, Cloth and Clay. Meet other grown-ups while enjoying conversation about art and activities. Drop-ins welcome!
