National | Guided Tour of the Hammer Museum with Ann Philbin
May 25, 2023 | 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Join ArtTable for a tour of the Hammer Museum with Director Ann Philbin!
The Hammer Museum’s completion of a 90-million dollar renovation this March is the most recent step in a more than 20-year transformation of this Los Angeles institution, which Ann Philbin has overseen since becoming its director in 1999. This major capital campaign has allowed the museum to add visibility, expand its galleries, showcase its collection, and build community and public spaces. The Hammer Museum is one of three public arts institutions of the School of the Arts and Architecture at UCLA, and is one of the most influential museums in the country.
