For Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and their Families
Visitors ages 18 and up with intellectual or developmental disabilities and their families are invited to join us for a multi-sensory tour and artmaking workshop exploring Modernity and Opulence: Women of the Wiener Werkstätte.
Modernity and Opulence: Women of the Wiener Werkstätte sheds new light on the role that Jewish women played as artists, designers, patrons, and tastemakers in early 20th-century Vienna. This exhibition contains clothing, textiles, ceramics, toys, paintings, and more designed by this collective. Their style and ideas helped shape design in Vienna and beyond.
