Double Take—Artist-Led Walks through the Galleries

Sunday, March 10, 2019 | 11:00 am - 3:45 pm
East and West Buildings (meet at the info desk in West Building)

Trust yourself! You know more about art than you think, so take a second look. Walk through the Museum with local artists/advocates as your guides; discuss their inspirations in the collection and find your own.

11–11:45 am Noelle Ocon
Noelle Ocon, senior conservator of paintings at the NCMA, has concentrated on the examination, documentation, and conservation of the 17th-century Dutch and Flemish collection. Her passion is using science and technology in the investigation of artwork

2–2:45 pm Ellen Hathaway
Washington, N.C., native Ellen Hathaway believes art is relational, be it between art and artist, art and viewer, or viewer and artist. “For you, there is nothing to understand in my paintings, only to see, feel, and experience with the senses. The painting invites us to just be, one with the other.”

3–3:45 pm Monét Marshall
Mon​ét Noelle Marshall is a Durham-based artist, director, producer, and creative consultant. She is the founding artistic director of MOJOAA Performing Arts Company and an artistic force who uses the arts to engage communities ​in collective visioning, changemaking, and joy as social action.
