The Hood Museum Is OPEN.
The wait is over. I was one of the first people in the door as The Hood Museum of Art reopened on August 4. It was a quiet, relaxed visit; no marching bands. You’ll want to go. Many old favorites and new pieces to investigate, the overheard murmurings of your fellow museum goers to contemplate. According to a docent in the gallery, one lonely exhibition (photo, below) had been installed in March, 2020 just before the museum closed due to the pandemic. Today, “Breach/Logbook 20: Nebulous” welcomed some of its first, long-awaited visitors.
