5200 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, MI 48202

About This Event

Part of the 75th Detroit Jewish Book Fair, featuring author Christopher Gorham discussing 'Matisse at War'.

What to Expect

  • 1.Expect a focused author talk and discussion about Matisse during wartime, with room for questions rather than a hands-on art activity.
  • 2.Arrive a little early to find the event space and get a seat; museum events can take a few minutes to navigate from the entrance.
  • 3.Bring a question if you have one, but you can just listen. The author talk gives the room a clear focal point, so attending solo should feel comfortable.
  • 4.Check the DIA's current admission and parking details before you go, since event access and museum access may have separate requirements.
  • 5.If you want to browse the galleries too, leave extra time before or after the two-hour program rather than trying to squeeze them in during the talk.
