Gray-Krehbiel Open Night: Barkley L. Hendricks at the Frick
Friday, September 29, 2023

Celebrate the must-see fall exhibition Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick with a free evening at Frick Madison! The show’s organizers, Frick Curator Aimee Ng and Consulting Curator Antwaun Sargent, will present a conversation about Hendricks’s pioneering work and legacy. Plus, all night long enjoy after-hours access to the galleries and reading room along with themed talks, live jazz music, and sketching.

Complimentary refreshments from The SisterYard will be provided. Talks will explore the Barkley L. Hendricks exhibition, our site-specific pastel mural by Nicolas Party, and highlights from the Frick Art Reference Library.

American Sign Language interpretation and Assistive Listening Devices will be available at all the talks and at the curators’ conversation. The conversation will also be livestreamed (with CART captioning) and made available for future viewing online.
