Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art To Host Art "à la Carte" Feb. 10

The Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art will showcase its monthly installment of Art "à la Carte" Feb. 10 from 6-9 p.m.

The event combines live music and a short film with the museum's art collection. 

"Over the years we have changed things up, incorporating various elements such as live performances, scavenger hunts and art activities. However, we have found what people enjoy most is the opportunity to view our collections and hear live music. These two elements have remained the staples," said Katie J. Parker, audience development manager at the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art.


This month's musical guest is the OU Brass Quintet, and the film is More Perfect Union

Both will run from 6:30-8:30 p.m. The film is 30 minutes long and should be considered for mature audiences only.

Music will be performed in the Natalie and Paul Buckthal Gallery, and the film will be shown in the Orientation Room. 


The event is hosted by the museum in conjunction with Norman Arts Council's Second Friday Circuit of Art and other local galleries and organizations. The museum has put on the event since the circuit's inception in Feb. 2009.
