The Curious Nature show brings together paintings, photographs, prints, and objects of nine St. Louis artists that offer intimate observations on nature, design, science, and the spiritual self. The exhibition honors the vision and curiosity of the women who commissioned the building in 1908, creating a place dedicated to knowledge, exchange, and community. These values continue to resonate within the space today. Thirty percent of all proceeds will contribute to the restoration of The Link Auditorium and support future cultural programming.
Featuring the mesmerizing guitar music of Iranian-American musician Farshid Etniko, blending his persian heritage with Jazz rhythms and Flamenco motifs!
