The Detroit Institute of Arts: Behind the Seen

The Detroit Institute of Arts' virtual Behind the Seen program brings insight and engagement about the DIA's collection from the museum to your home. Presented by trained Detroit Institute of Arts teaching volunteer Carlene VanVoorhies, each free presentation covers a different part of the DIA's well-renowned art collection, including Diego Rivera and the Detroit Industry murals, African-American artists in the DIA’s collection, and the Dutch Golden Age, among others.

Join us on Microsoft Teams for an hour of art and culture on your lunch break- time is available at the end for you to ask questions about the presentation.
