Into the Great Dying Reception – July 28

Friday, July 28, 2023

Join us for a celebratory reception in honor of Beatriz Chachamovits and her new installation Into the Great Dying: Roles We Play. Part of the Museum’s Welcome to Paradise program, this interactive sculpture is the second courtyard commission for the inaugural season.

Into the Great Dying: The Roles We Play by ceramicist Beatriz Chachamovits is the final installation in a three-part series that invites viewers to engage with an interactive coral reef. With much discussion centered on how human beings have contributed to damaging the fragile ecosystems, this installation instead encourages audiences to participate in rebuilding a reef.

You are invited to mingle with the artist and interact with the art. This event will be followed by a night of JAZZ at MOCA on the museum’s plaza.

At 6:30, MOCA members will have a chance to meet the artist and enjoy specialty cocktails prepared by Rhum Barbancourt. Not a member? Become a member today

At 7:30 p.m., the reception will be open to the general public.
