Material World: Thread

Join us in the Lee Study Center for an exploration of our material world. Each month we will focus on a different material and display works from our collection for close looking. In September, marvel at how artists express themselves using thread. Admission to this event and to the Spencer is free for everyone, always. Free parking is available in designated spaces on the first level of the Mississippi Street garage across from the Museum. Check in at our Welcome Desk with your license plate number for parking validation. 🚗 two cranes panel, early 1900s Japan damask, silk, metallic thread, embroidering, seed stitch, satin stitch, running stitch, couching Source unknown, 0000.1111
