SOLD OUT: The Dali Experience with Gerry Rymes

October 24, 2024October 24, 2024

Join us on Thursday, October 24th, from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM for an experience with our Dali artworks led by Gerry Rymes that is nothing short of spellbinding. It offers viewers insights into the artist’s turbulent, scandalous life, his mesmerizing and often mysterious art, and his connections to the Surrealism movement, as well as his break from it. Using our monumental "Santiago El Grande" as the gateway to Dali’s art and life, Gerry will take viewers on a pilgrimage animated with stories, dreams, quotes, and symbols that define one of the world’s greatest artists.

Mimicking the artist’s trademark drawers and his use of double images, Gerry opens little drawers where scandal, mystery, science, religion, subconsciousness, and mysticism hide in plain sight.

Be prepared to experience Dali’s art and his connections to the Gallery and Lord Beaverbrook in a whole new way.

$20 for non members, $10 for members.
