Nights at the Joslyn

Thu Mar 5, 5PM–8PM

Celebrating Artists Who Are Women

Monthly Nights at The Joslyn events are evenings for art immersion. Come out for art talks, art making, special programs, and tasty food and drinks (for purchase). The Joslyn marks Women’s History Month with a look at the numerous contributions of artists who are women, in the fields of visual arts, literature, and music. Our VIP Visitors* this month will be Girls Incorporated of Omaha and Identity Preparatory Academy.
