This 75-minute program offers an immersive blend of art, conversation, and flavor inspired by Beyond the Mountains: Danny Lyon’s Photography in Haiti. The evening begins with a curator-led tour by Nyree Dowdy, curator of Beyond the Mountains, exploring the historical context and Danny Lyon’s visual language. Dowdy’s insights invite audiences to look more closely at Lyon’s photographs and consider the human stories, social movements, and powerful storytelling that define his work.
Following the tour, guests are invited to enjoy a thoughtfully crafted cocktail by mixologist Josh Seaburg, owner of Model Citizen Cocktail. This tasting experience extends the conversation beyond the gallery, offering a sensory reflection and deeper connection to the artwork. Together, the tour and tasting create a dynamic opportunity to connect visual art, ideas, and taste in a memorable and engaging way.
