Join exhibiting artist Athena Papadopoulos for an informal tour and Q&A of her project The New Alphabet, located on MOCA’s third floor. For this exhibition, Papadopoulos has produced two distinct sculptural bodies of work that have been shaped by the isolating experience of the last two years and an ever-present concern that these artworks may never be seen. Over the course of the tour, Papadopoulos will expand on her artistic practice, specifically her inspiration for this body of work.

Tours will take place on:

  • Saturday, February 25 from 2:00 pm–3:00 pm
  • Friday, March 3 from 7:00 pm–8:00 pm

This programme is free with general admission and includes the option to donate. Pre-registration for each tour is recommended.
